GroupListView in Qt?

[AyaKoshigaya]

Hi,

the GroupListView on the website is more than just a simple QTreeWidget/View..
The big difference is the grouping (in the example the rows with blue background) - Sure, I can do this by simply add an QTreeWidgetItem (or via a Model for QTreeView), but the text of the group-row can be longer than the cell it is in.

So what I need (if I have to do the grouping myself) is the ability to have a row that ignores the column boundaries.
I am not sure how I should describe it, in html it would be <td colspan="5">...

As told, reading the documentation could help: QTreeView::setFirstColumnSpanned(). And the styling of the items can be easily done with a proper delegate. You might also want to read about model & view architecture in Qt.

Thanks a lot, setFirstColumnSpanned() was very helpfull.

PS: Next time I will read trough the whole documentation before asking a question in this forum.. seems as if I got the idea of this forum wrong.

No, it's not. Even the webpage you gave us a link to says that. It claims that sometimes you need something more than a flat list, that you need to have groups of items. (Un)Suprisingly that's exactly what a tree view does.
