qtreeview select single item & column

[hermes]

I wonder if someone could help me with the following issue:

• I have a qtreeview and a QAbstractItemModel. with multiple columns (using pyqt5)
• When I select a certain column of one index (one "field"), the whole row turns blue and he field additionally gets a thin white line at the bottom.
• When I access the currentindex.column() function I always get the first column "0" (only if I go and edit a certain column the correct colum-id is available in my setdata function).

-> I'd like to change the behavior such that really only one "field" (one column of one item) is highlighted or - if this is not possible "at east" get the correct column-id

I could not find a suitable option in the selectionmodel or selectionmode... There seems to be only options about multi-selection etc. Did I miss something....?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi,

From what you wrote, QAbstractItemView::SingleSelection and QAbstractItemView::SelectItems comes to mind.

Hope it helps

Thanks a lot for the hints!

I had tried these without success but your input triggered me to look further in this direction and I discovered something called selectionbehavior.

In pyqt5 I use:
self.view.setSelectionBehavior(QAbstractItemView.SelectItems)

Thanks again!
