Thanks for the response. I have also tried replacing the listview with a tableview, and have not like the results too much. For instance, I could never figure out how to hide the headers. In your example code the "view.header().hide()" function returns AttributeError: 'QTableView' object has no attribute 'header' and similarly with view.setRootIsDecorated(False), I get: AttributeError: 'QTableView' object has no attribute 'setRootIsDecorated'.
Even if that were to work (I'm still interested to learn the working header.hide method), I would have a grid view, and loose the ability to add spacers. I assume the grid could be turned off, so perhaps if I come up with a way to add spacers, it will fit the bill. I think the draw approach would be preferable if I could just get the cords I need. I thought of an idea of where I get the full size of the QWidget inside the listwidget's scroll viewport, and then generate my labels in an identical height QWidget, and then either add it to the same viewport if thats possible, or create a new one of same size, and link the moved() signal of the original QWidget, with my QWidget so they move together. With this approach I've run into many problems, like not having a good way to access the QWidget buried deep inside the combo box, I was using a mile long, combobox.children()[1].children()[1].children()[0]....... thing to retrieve and install a event filter too. And I was unable to get the move() event to fire, because the QWidget was always at (0,0)... I will look into the delegate approach next, I have yet to work with any delegates, so I don't know what kind of info they get passed. Any pointers on this front would be appreciated :) - Adam On Fri, Sep 4, 2009 at 8:07 AM, David Boddie <dbod...@trolltech.com> wrote: > > On Thu Sep 3 22:00:52 BST 2009, Adam W. wrote: > > > I have a standard QComboBox displaying about 25 text based items right now, > > left aligned. > > What I want to do is display a bool status for the same items and have it > > right aligned in the child list box (preferably display in the list view > > only too).
