How to show/draw focus & select at the same time

[tanminh]

Hi,

I'm having difficulty selecting an item and drawing a focus rect on it at the same time.

What I want to do is: in a single-selection mode tree widget if the last selected item does not pass a test when the user clicks a different item I want to move the selection & focus rect back to the last selected item. The last item can be re-selected without problem, however, the focus rect always seems to stay on the item the user just clicked.

Please help if any of you has done this before.

void MyForm::OnTreeWidgetItemSelectionChangedSlot()
{
        . . .
 
        //TreeWidget has single selection mode.
        //This slot is in response to the itemSelectionChanged signal.
 
	SelectedItemList = TreeWidget->selectedItems();
 
	if (SelectedItemList.count() > 0)
	{
                //Get the newly selected item.
		Item = SelectedItemList[0];
 
	       if (LastItem failed the validation test)
		{
                        //Unselect the newly selected item.
			Item->setSelected(false);
 
                        //Set the selection & focus back to the last item.
			LastItem->setSelected(true);
                        TreeWidget->setCurrentItem(LastItem);
		}
		else
                {
                        LastItem = Item;
                        ...
                }
	}
}

void MyForm::OnTreeWidgetItemSelectionChangedSlot()
{
        . . .

        //TreeWidget has single selection mode.
        //This slot is in response to the itemSelectionChanged signal.

	SelectedItemList = TreeWidget->selectedItems();

	if (SelectedItemList.count() > 0)
	{
                //Get the newly selected item.
		Item = SelectedItemList[0];

	       if (LastItem failed the validation test)
		{
                        //Unselect the newly selected item.
			Item->setSelected(false);

                        //Set the selection & focus back to the last item.
			LastItem->setSelected(true);
                        TreeWidget->setCurrentItem(LastItem);
		}
		else
                {
                        LastItem = Item;
                        ...
                }
	}
}
