QStandardItem Class

Items usually contain text, icons, or checkboxes.

Each item can have its own background brush which is set with the setBackground() function. The current background brush can be found with background(). The text label for each item can be rendered with its own font and brush. These are specified with the setFont() and setForeground() functions, and read with font() and foreground().

By default, items are enabled, editable, selectable, checkable, and can be used both as the source of a drag and drop operation and as a drop target. Each item's flags can be changed by calling setFlags(). Checkable items can be checked and unchecked with the setCheckState() function. The corresponding checkState() function indicates whether the item is currently checked.

You can store application-specific data in an item by calling setData().

Each item can have a two-dimensional table of child items. This makes it possible to build hierarchies of items. The typical hierarchy is the tree, in which case the child table is a table with a single column (a list).

The dimensions of the child table can be set with setRowCount() and setColumnCount(). Items can be positioned in the child table with setChild(). Get a pointer to a child item with child(). New rows and columns of children can also be inserted with insert
