[Qt-interest] Add a QDir to a form

[Scott Aron Bloom]

Take a look at the code for QFileDialog:;getDirectory() for linux, for windows and OSX it uses the native dialog.. For linux it uses QFileSystemModel

I can't seem to get this working just like I want. When I have the QTreeView populated with the directory structure, and I want to dive deeper into the structure, I would like for the columns to expand as I do this to fit the width of the path string. Do you have to tie a signal/slot together to make this resize the columns when someone starts expanding a directory tree?

 

Thanks

So that seems to have me going down the right path. Do you know if there is any kind of convenience method for finding the absolute path of the currently selected directory that I am showing in a treeView?

Sure. QFileSystemModel has some additional data roles you can use for that (the getting the path part). For getting the current item, you can use QTreeView::currentIndex();

Hello,

I am trying to build a pop-up dialog that would allow my users to select a directory, select some options, and click "Go" to run a process on files in the directory. I would like to make a dialog that contains the same type of "Select a directory" logic as a QDir can give me, but allows me to add some other labels, radio buttons, drop downs, etc, so that all of the options for a particular directoy can be set in one window. is this possible?

 

Sure. Take a look at QFileSystemModel, set the apropriate filters to only show directories, and display the model using a QTreeView.
