I wouldn't expect that to work but it's understandable why it didn't
throw an error.  setData() is used to edit the contents of the model at
the provided index. Remember a model can store anything. All this does
is replace whatever was at that index with a Font object instance.  I'm
puzzled why you keep trying to mess with the model when it's the view
that does the actual font setting.  Remember that a single model can be
used with more than one view at the same time, each view implementing
its own style. Thus a model has no information like fonts in it, nor
should it, other than perhaps HTML text markup that the view will render.

Did you consult the folk on the PyQt mailing list? Or even the main Qt
lists?  This isn't language-specific stuff you're asking about.

I just wanna set the font to bold/not-bold when clicking on a row in

With a QTableWidget I do it like this:

font.setBold(True) or False
QTableWidget.item(row,col).setFont(font)



But the QTableView has data/view 'models' attached to it and that

This doesn't throw an error, but doesn't show bold:

Any ideas?


You definitely need to be setting the font in an item.  I'm not sure but 
I think that your QFont() doesn't have any properties, so it doesn't do 
anything.  I found this bit in a page - it's in C++ instead of Python 
but that doesn't really make a difference except for the exact syntax to 
use -



https://forum.qt.io/topic/70016/qlistview-item-font-stylesheet-not-working/4 



   QVariant v = ModelBaseClass::data(index,role);
   if( condition && role == Qt::FontRole )
   {
    QFont font = v.value();
     font.setBold( true );
    v = QVariant::fromValue( font );
   }

IOW, you have to get the font from the item, then set it to bold, which 
you would do with setFont().  Then you set that new font on the item. Of 
course you would have to unset bold on it later. See


https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtablewidgetitem.html#font

Instead of "item", you might need to operate on "row".  I didn't look 
into that.  Since a row probably doesn't have just one font (since it 
can have more than one item), you'd still have to get the font from some 
item in the row.


You might also be able to make the item bold using CSS, but I'm not sure.

Internet searches are your friend for questions like this.  


Before I posted I spent a couple hours looking online, reading the docs, 
and trying different ways.


I found one person that said they did it but their syntax didn't work. 
But it doesn't throw an error either.


model.setData(model.index(tblRow, col), font, Qt.FontRole)

When I'm done with my app (nearly 2K LOC) I'm going to put a summary out 
there somewhere with a bunch of examples of easy ways to do things.  For 
one thing I wrote zero classes.  Not one.




I've never 
worked with a QTableView, so I had to start with some knowledge about 
some other parts of QT.  I found the first page searching for "qt set 
qtableview row font", and the second searching for "qtablewidgetitem".



I used TableWidgets in 2 apps and no problems.  In this app there's more 
data and more sorting, and one of the TableWidgets took a while to load 
35K rows (7 items per row).  So I tried a TableView.  Incredibly fast - 
4x the speed - but it doesn't have the bolding in place yet.  That could 
slow it down.


As you know, a TableView is tied to the underlying datasource (in my 
case via a QSqlTableModel), but it's much faster to show data than a 
TableWidget, because with the widget you have populate each cell with 
setItem().


The Widget is slower but easier to work with.  So it's a tradeoff.


And I think I found some bugs in the TableViews.  The Views have 
editStrategies() that control how data is updated (if the model supports 
editing), but they don't work the way the docs say they do.


In my app, when I click on a row a flag field is changed from N to Y 
onscreen (well, it's hidden but it's in the row).


model.setData(model.index(row,7), 'Y')


OnFieldChange  : all changes to the model will be applied immediately to 
the database.

model.setEditStrategy(QSqlTableModel.OnFieldChange)

Doesn't work right.  The screen is updated the first row you click on, 
but the db isn't updated until you reload the view.



OnRowChange: changes to a row will be applied when the user selects 
a different row.

model.setEditStrategy(QSqlTableModel.OnRowChange)

Doesn't work right.  The screen is updated the first row you click on, 
but the db isn't updated until you reload the view.



OnManualSubmit : all changes will be cached in the model until either 
submitAll() or revertAll() is called.

model.setEditStrategy(QSqlTableModel.OnManualSubmit)

This works the best: the screen changes on each row I click, but the db 
isn't updated even if I do submitAll() right after setData().  Have to 
reload the view for the changes to propagate to the

I see the QTableView.hideRow(row) method, which does exactly what I need.

Thanks man!





After calling removeRow(), the screen isn't updating.  It's as if the
