Using QTableView I would like to be able to select multiple cells and change all selected cells at once. How I can do it?
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "changing" the selected cells (content, formatting, something else?) but I think QTableView::selectedIndexes() (or QTableView::selectionModel() if you need more power) is going to help out. You can loop through the returned indexes and update your underlying model.
If you are using a QSortFilterProxyModel you will have to use the QSortFilterProxyModel::mapFromSource() and related methods to map from the selected cells on your table view to the actual model indexes.

I am still learning, and looking for help on how to display a label based on one data-sources field value, being within another data-sources field value list.
I have one calculated table, displaying rows of documents within a folder, and wish to use a field representing the document number in that data-source, so that if it's ANYWHERE within another tables field it displays my label.
I've been trying to use projection as I think this is how to achieve it.
I can get it working based on both the current #datasouce.item.fieldnames but need it to base the calculation on all possible numbers in that tables field (Image below should make it easier to understand).
I expect that it has something to do with projections, but can't find anything within the learning templates or anywhere else to resolve the issue.
I think the following should work for you. For the 'Reserved' label have the following binding for the text property:
(#datasources.project_quotes.items..quotenumber).indexOf(#widget.datasource.item.Qnumber) !== -1 ? 'Reserved' : ''
I would suggest alternatively just to include a field in your calculated datasource and making the determination in your server script.
I have a requirement where I need to create a list of all missing labels in any particular object.
For example.
I want to create a new table with a couple of fields and an overridden method. Now, suppose I am setting up the table property label as "Car details" similarly I am creating new fields and setting their label properties as "Car" and "Model" respectively and overriding validateWrite method with the error "Car-model combination not valid". But, I am not creating a label for any one of them. So now I want to write a job which will show that I need to create three missing labels.
I know Best practice check will give me warnings for the above scenario but I need it as a list as I'll use this list to enhance the Label editor.
Thanks in advance.
You could loop through the AOT using the TreeNode class and select elements where the label property is blank. Then you can send the information out to the infolog or whatever you wish.
There are numerous code examples out there of how to do that, such as this one looping over forms selecting on the HTMLHelpTopic property.
I'm trying to implement multiple record selection feature on a grid.
It is very similar to http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=3831
It adds an extra column with check boxes. I want those check boxes!!
But it depends on a extra logical field in the underlying table. It need to create a class clscheck which inherits CHECKBOX. I'm not sure why this CLICK procedure is needed for the checkbox.
PROCEDURE CLICK
IF DODEFAULT()
KEYBOARD '{DNARROW}'
ENDIF
ENDPROC
When I removed it, row selection did not work correctly as expected. Why this?
Here is my requirement:
1) I don't want to add an extra logical field in the underlying table.
2) To work with controls in the grid, I think AllowCellSelection must be .T. I want AllowCellSelection = .F. because I don't need to work with any control in the grid except the check boxes. I need to work only with check boxes. The other columns will be read-only.
3) Can I have selected list without the logical field in the underlying table?
4) Can I remove the usage of KEYBOARD '{DNARROW}'?
In fact, I have a grid which is AllowCellSelection = .F., but it only provides single selection.
I need to enhance it with multiple selection, thus, I just want to add an extra column with check boxes so that user can know he can select multiple records.
No need Shift+Click or Ctrl+Click which is not familiar with idiot users.
I have found this - http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=433
It also depends on an extra logical field and it depends Shift+Click and Ctrl+Click.
What you are seeing is quite common for multi-select grids. I've used them SIMILAR to this in the past. However, you are afraid of the extra column in the underlying table. That may/not be true. You don't always have to update the ORIGINAL table, but a temporary CURSOR you are presenting to the user. Ex: If you want to display a list of employees in a table. No, you don't want to keep adding this column to the original employee table as then anyone else trying to do multi-select could falsely get your selection. However, if you pulled into your own local cursor and presented to the user, then no problem. Example...
Thisform.YourGrid.RecordSource = "Employees"
(bound directly to your employee table -- not necessarily the right thing)
vs
use in select( "C_MultiPickEmployees" )
select ;
.F. as IsChosen, ;
E.* ;
from ;
Employees E;
into ;
cursor C_MultiPickEmployees READWRITE
Thisform.YourGrid.RecordSource = "C_MultiPickEmployees"
NOW, you have your extra column without dealing with issues to the underlying table. If you wanted to further filter what you were showing -- such as employees for a certain division/department, then just add that to a WHERE clause, add an Order By if so needed and you are good to go.
As for the "Allow Cell Selection", I've never had to deal with that. I just add a "checkbox" to the first column and set
Thisform.YourGrid.Column[1].CurrentControl = "CheckBoxControl"
(based on the name it is added to the column).
Then, set the column 1's "ControlSource" = "C_MultiPickEmployees.IsChosen" and you should mostly be done.
As for the "CLICK" event trying to force the down arrow. This is more for automatically scrolling to the next record so you can just click, click, click for multiple entries.
Hope this helps clarify things for you.
I have a QTreeView which has the ExtendedSelection attribute (users may select more than one non-contiguous range of cells).
I would like my app to allow them to select these multiple cells and then enter a value and have all the cells take that value.
My issue is that I don't know how to get the full range of cells passed to my model. Right now the index that is passed to the setData method is only the active cell, not the full range of selected cells.
In the past, I have had my view store the currently selected range in the model every time it changes, and then use that to control which cells to modify. This seems kind of hacky and I wonder whether anyone has a better and more elegant solution.
I am using PyQt by the way, though I suspect this applies to QT by itself.
Thanks!
I believe you can use selectionModel method of the QAbstractItemView class to iterate through selected indexes and change values of the corresponding cells. Below is a small example:
foreach (QModelIndex index, ui->treeView->selectionModel()->selectedIndexes())
{
qDebug() << "Changing index " << index.row();
ui->treeView->model()->setData(index, "new data");
}
hope this helps, regards
Ok so I have drop down list connected to a datasource, and I need to change 2 or 3 of the values before they are displayed and I'm just having trouble figuring out what to do. I'm assuming I setup some kind of loop to check the values, but thats all I can figure. Does anybody have any general suggestions or resources they know that I can look up? Thanks.
You need to do your processing before you bind the datasource. So for example, create a dataset of results or arraylist, process the results changing your values and then bind to your dataset/arraylist.
You'll need to be more specific about what you are binding to and how you want to process for me to be more specific..
