Qt community, David, thanks that definitely seems to be heading in a promising direction.
It does create a challenge though. The model that I am using for my QTableView inherits from QAbstractTableModel. Your proposal appears to require that I change my model to instead inherit from QStandardItemModel, cotrrect? It is this change of inheritance that appears to be creating issues with an existing call to <...Model>::index(int row,int column, const QModelIndex & parent = QModelndex() ) const in my existing code.
In my existing call I do not pass a parent argument and therefore use the default. This worked fine when the call was ultimately to QAbstractTableModel::index(...) but appears to be returning an invalid index (-1,-1) when the call ends up calling QStandardItemModel::index(...). I am certainly willing to pass an explicit parent argument, but am not sure how to generate a valid parent.
As always any help would be appreciated please. Thanks again. Sincerely, Carl On 4/25/2012 11:55 PM, David Boosalis wrote:
Here is an example with a QTreeView, it should work for QTableView. _model = new ModelItemModel(this); setModel(_model); for(int i=0;i<NumColumns;i++) { headerItem[i] = new QStandardItem(headerLabel[i]); _model->setHorizontalHeaderItem(i,headerItem[i]); headerItem[i]->setToolTip(headerToolTips[i]); } The above code is not complete, but I think you get the picture -DavidOn Wed, Apr 25, 2012 at 2:38 PM, Carl Schumann <schum...@fnal.gov <mailto:schum...@fnal.gov>> wrote:Qt community, I would like to add tool tips to the column headings of a QTableView instance. Is there a way to do this please? I see that I can get a QHeaderView and add a tool tip to it but that would be for the whole set of headings not one tool tip for each heading, if I understand things correctly. Thanks for any help please.
