pyqt qt4 QTableView how to disable sorting for cer

2020-04-06 15:55发布

问题:

So I have a QTableView and I only want to let column sorting on column 1 but not column2.

Naturally I tried to installEventFilter on QHeaderView or QTableView, but MouseButtonPress event is not being passed unless you installEventFilter on QApplication

Now if when eventFilter is called, the target object is always the top level widget although event.pos() is actually relative to the header or tablecell depending on where you click.

So we cannot use QHeaderView.rect().contains(event.pos()) to find out if the user clicks on the header because you get false positive when you click on the top edge of the very first table cell.

You can still however calculate this using globalPos but then your eventFilter's logic has to change when you change layout or add more widgets above the tableview.

I believe it is a bug that event.pos() returns the relative pos even the object argument always refer to the same top level widget.

A more logical API would be that there is a event.target() method to return the target where it calculates the relative pos.

But I don't see a target() method or a way to find the target in this event filter.

Maybe I'm missing something?

There's a much easier solution: reimplement the sort method of the model, and only permit sorting for the appropriate column.

Also, as an added refinement, use the sortIndicatorChanged signal of the header to restore the current sort indicator when appropriate.

Here's a demo script:

from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore

class TableModel(QtGui.QStandardItemModel):
    _sort_order = QtCore.Qt.AscendingOrder

    def sortOrder(self):
        return self._sort_order

    def sort(self, column, order):
        if column == 0:
            self._sort_order = order
            QtGui.QStandardItemModel.sort(self, column, order)

class Window(QtGui.QWidget):
    def __init__(self, rows, columns):
        QtGui.QWidget.__init__(self)
        self.table = QtGui.QTableView(self)
        model = TableModel(rows, columns, self.table)
        for row in range(rows):
            for column in range(columns):
                item = QtGui.QStandardItem('(%d, %d)' % (row, column))
                item.setTextAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
                model.setItem(row, column, item)
        self.table.setModel(model)
        self.table.setSortingEnabled(True)
        self.table.horizontalHeader().sortIndicatorChanged.connect(
            self.handleSortIndicatorChanged)
        layout = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(self)
        layout.addWidget(self.table)

    def handleSortIndicatorChanged(self, index, order):
        if index != 0:
            self.table.horizontalHeader().setSortIndicator(
                0, self.table.model().sortOrder())

if __name__ == '__main__':

    import sys
    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
    window = Window(5, 5)
    window.show()
    window.setGeometry(600, 300, 600, 250)
    sys.exit(app.exec_())
