[PySide] manually closing editor on custom delegate

[Frank Rueter | OHUfx]

Hi all,

I think I need some MVC help once again:

I am using a custom item delegate that uses the bottom 20 pixels of a
cell in a table view for a QComboBox (the rest will be static content).
I can create the editor in the right spot etc, but I can't figure out
how to close it again when the user clicks into the upper part of the cell.
I tried all sorts of events and signals in the view, the delegate and
the editor itself but to no avail.
This is the state of things:

The initial table:


The table with the open editor after clicking into the bottom 20 pixels
of a cell:


The table after I click away from the editor but into the same cell, in
which case I'd like to close it and show the initial state as seen
above, but I just can't figure out how to.


Attached is the working code to produce the above images.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
frank

Thanks Matthieu, much appreciated!
That seems so obvious now that I see it :-D

I have to admit that I am now considering using the context menu and
customising that, since it already displays the behaviour I am after
(single click to open and close when you click off).

Good to have both options though, so thanks again!

Cheers,
frank

Oups forgot the markdown highlight :P
|else: # Can't get this to work. I want to close the editor here
(without committing any data). print "\tclicked off - I want to close
teh editor now if it's open"
self.closeEditor(self.itemDelegate().current_editor,
QtWidgets.QAbstractItemDelegate.NoHint) |
|def createEditor(self, parent, option, index): '''Creates a combo box
to chose the version to sync in case tehre are mote than one used in a
sequence. Only show the editor if the mouse click ocurrs in the area
where the editor lives. ''' self.current_editor =
QtWidgets.QComboBox(parent)
self.current_editor.setMaximumHeight(self.editorHeight) return
self.current_editor |

Ah ok I miss read your problem... I got the same behaviour if
I click the Edit zone and then click again the edit zone on
the same Cell,
clicking outside of the edited cell close the Editor.

Hi Frank!
I've tried your sample code and I don't see this behaviour
on Linux Centos, I can click to open the editor, choose an
item inside
then when I click outside of it, it close normally.
Maybe try to remove the line `editor.showPopup()` in the
`def setEditorData(self, editor, index):`
as you call
```
            # Click was inside of editor area so open it
for the index
self.setCurrentIndex(index)
            self.edit(index)
```
you don't have to .showPopup() normally... or maybe it is
macos bug :P

Hello Frank,

I'm a little bit confused,
is the attached GIF the expected behavior?
of you would like to display the selected number inside the green area
where the QComboBox is located?

Cheers

Hi Christian,

thanks for taking a look.
The behaviour in the gif is the expected one, but it won't happen if you
click in the white are of the same cell.

The context menu actually behaves exactly like I want, so I am looking
into customising that which should simplify the code as well.

Cheers,
frank
