How to format QDate in QTableWidgetWiev

[ChrisW67]

Use a custom item delegate applied to the date column of the view. Something like:

class DateDelegate: public QStyledItemDelegate {
  Q_OBJECT
public:
  QString displayText(const QVariant &value, const QLocale &locale) const {
    if (value.type() == QVariant::Date) {
      return value.toDate().toString("...");
    }
    return QStyledItemDelegate::displayText(value, locale);
  }
};

class DateDelegate: public QStyledItemDelegate {
  Q_OBJECT
public:
  QString displayText(const QVariant &value, const QLocale &locale) const {
    if (value.type() == QVariant::Date) {
      return value.toDate().toString("...");
    }
    return QStyledItemDelegate::displayText(value, locale);
  }
};

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and QTableView::setItemDelegateForColumn()
