[Qt-interest] Query related selection color in Qt

[Ramesh]

Ya andre, you are right.
I do agree with you, I didn't think in general, I just thought it from
application point of view..
As you mentioned out of all, Rich text is one of the major aspect listView
is suffering.. :(

Thanks for enlighten me in this aspect. I never thought a small query would
bring up so many things.
Gud luck.. Let me know once you have implemented them..

Thanks lot.. :)..

You know what? That is a very good question! It turns out you already
can do more with style sheets on item views than I thought possible.
Thanks for pointing that out.

However, I think there is still a use case for the delegate, as it
provides functionality the standard item can not (please correct me if
I'm wrong!):
* you can make styles apply depending on things like column and row numbers
* you can make styles apply depending on data roles and flags
* more supported properties (like text alignment)
* full rich text support

Still, for things like your usecase, it turns out you don't need it, and
you could just have applied a style sheet to your view and be done. Much
simpler. A slight dissapointment for me (invested time in something that
turns out is not as useful as I hoped it would be), but good news for
every body else!
