[Qt-interest] Highlighted QTreeWidgetItem inside a QTreeWidget.

[phil prentice]

Thanks
  I dont know if this was the best way, but I did the following:-

// Set the highlighted text colour to show the state of this network.
  NetListDataItem *item =
                (NetListDataItem *)current->data(0, Qt::UserRole).toInt();
  // Set colour to show if network unstable.
  QColor color(((item) && (item->networkStatus() ==
                                NetListDataItem::e_unstable))?"red":"white");
  QPalette highlight;
  highlight.setColor(QPalette::HighlightedText,color);
  m_netRouting->setPalette(highlight);  //QTreeWidget 

So I set the palette highlight color of the QTreeWidget item appropriately 
every time a row is selected (currentItemChanged() signal)
It seems to work ok; the only disadvantage was that all of the columns of the 
selected rows text gets turned to red, not just column 1.

But I am happy

Thanks again
Phil
