i need to write a tree?, in pyqt. It looks like this:
Clients(this is text)
Type A (this is a Clients child and has a checkbox)
Type B (this is a Clients child and has a checkbox)
Vendors(this is text)
Mary (this is a Vendors child and has a checkbox)
Arnold (this is a Vendors child and has a checkbox)
Time Period
Init(this is a Time Period child, and would be a calendarWidget for date selection)
End (this is a Time Period child, and would be a calendarWidget for date selection)
What would you recommend for this? QTreeWidget
? QTreeView?
This will be clickable items that i'll use to build sql queries.
Thanks for reading.
I recommend you to use QTreeWidget instead of QTreeView, because your tasks are pretty simple. QTreeView (with custom model, for example QStandardItemModel) is for difficult events. Yours is simple.
