Question

I do have a QTableView widget with QtGui.QTableView.SelectRows behaviour.

1. How can I get the current selected row?
2. Can I get a specific column from that row back, and not only the id of the row?

Thanks.

Answer 1

QTableView inherits signals from QAbstractItemView. To get current selected row you have to connect your slots to one of

 void activated ( const QModelIndex & index )
 void clicked ( const QModelIndex & index )
 void pressed ( const QModelIndex& index )

EDIT1: QModelIndex has methods row() and column() to know exactly which cell has been clicked/selected.

 self.table.clicked.connect(self.clickedSlot)
 def clickedSlot(self,index):
      print "Column is " + str(index.column())
      print "Row is " + str(index.row())

If you are new to Qt/PyQt , You might want to see how to use signals and slots.

EDIT2: If you want to get indexes from the widget itself

self.table.selectionModel.currentIndex()
