How to select WTableView content with the mouse?

Added by Vincenzo Romano 9 months ago

Despite I've told that each item in the model is item->setFlags( ItemIsSelectable ), I cannot select the text with the mouse clipboard.
How can I do this?

Hey Vincenzo,

ItemIsSelectable means that it can be selected as a cell/item, but not textual.
Text selection on the whole table view can be (re)enabled using a call of tableView->setSelectable(true).

... weird ... selection is column oriented! I would have expected row oriented.
Maybe this is why it's being disabled by default!

Hey Vincenzo,

Ah. indeed. This is because the table is rendered column-wise... But the selection was actually disabled to support proper drag and drop operations.
