QItemEditorFactory Class Reference
^{[QtGui module]}

The QItemEditorFactory class provides widgets for editing item data in views and delegates. More...

Methods

• __init__ (self)
• __init__ (self, QItemEditorFactory)
• QWidget createEditor (self, QVariant.Type type, QWidget parent)
• registerEditor (self, QVariant.Type type, QItemEditorCreatorBase creator)
• QByteArray valuePropertyName (self, QVariant.Type type)

Static Methods

• QItemEditorFactory defaultFactory ()
• setDefaultFactory (QItemEditorFactory factory)

When editing the data shown by an item delegate, the QItemDelegate responsible requests an editor widget from its item editor factory by calling the createEditor() function. The default factory is provided by this class, but it is possible to implement subclasses that provide specialized editing behavior, such as row or column-specific editors, or editors for certain types of data.

Additional editors can be registered for use with both standard and custom delegates with the registerEditor() function.
