Grouped QComboBox
You can find the description how to do this here:
http://www.mimec.org/node/305
The idea is that you add parent items and child items and then they are painted differently with the help of custom delegate.
I.e. you set
item->setData( "parent", Qt::AccessibleDescriptionRole );
when adding parent item of group and
item->setData( "child", Qt::AccessibleDescriptionRole );
otherwise.
And then you use this information for painting:
if ( type == QLatin1String( "parent" ) ) {
QStyleOptionViewItem parentOption = option;
parentOption.state |= QStyle::State_Enabled;
QItemDelegate::paint( painter, parentOption, index );
}
else if ( type == QLatin1String( "child" ) ) {
QStyleOptionViewItem childOption = option;
int indent = option.fontMetrics.width( QString( 4, QChar( ' ' ) ) );
childOption.rect.adjust( indent, 0, 0, 0 );
childOption.textElideMode = Qt::ElideNone;
QItemDelegate::paint( painter, childOption, index );
}
Here is my simple expample. If someone needs. In addition, I have added listview with the same function.
