Hi Marcus thank you for the help. I have managed to align everything now. widgets all centered. but now my model doesnt update with the data after i check the checkboxes, all the rest still working.
code here: <https://gist.github.com/RicardoViana/9110907> It seems my setModelData function doesn´t work. it doesn't spit any errors so i can trace it. the checkboxes update nicely from the model so my guess is my input is not reaching the setData on the model. def setModelData(self, editor, model, index): model.setData(index,self.checkBox.isChecked()) this works. def setEditorData (self, editor, index): getValue = index.model().data(index,QtCore.Qt.EditRole) if getValue == True: self.checkBox.setCheckState(QtCore.Qt.Checked) self.container.setStyleSheet("background-color:#347545") else: self.checkBox.setCheckState(QtCore.Qt.Unchecked) self.container.setStyleSheet("background-color:#7F2627") thank you best Ricardo Another thing im confused is if i should still use the checkStateRole or EditRole for the checkboxes -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python Programming for Autodesk Maya" group.
