[PySide] trying to mimic addressee field in email client

[Frank Rueter | OHUfx]

Hi all,

I am trying to mimic how the addressee widgets (“To” and “CC”) work in 
email clients but can’t get it right.
Upon valid input I would like to add a new row to teh list for 
additional input.
If the input is not found in the completer’s list O would like to keep 
the editor open and reset it to an empty value.

I am using a QListView with a delegate that opens a QLineEdit with a 
completer to check the input against a set list of strings.
With the below code I currently get “editing failed” errors when the 
input is incorrect (though the editor does stay open as desired).
With a valid input however the code adds two new rows instead of just one.

If somebody could have a look and offer some advise that would be awesome!

Cheers,
frank
