I have a QTreeView
of a QStandardItemModel
, and want one column to be checkboxes only (no text, just checkboxes). This has been discussed for QAbstractItemModel
. I have tried to implement the solution there (see SSCCE below), but only a single checkbox shows up, in the first row of the view. I am not sure what extra magic needs to be added for the checkbox to show up in every row.
Note, as discussed at this related question, I want a column of checkboxes with no text fields, so simply applying setCheckable(True)
to each item in a column will not be enough, as that leaves an (empty) text field next to the checkbox.
