Get Item from QStandardItemModel for QTableView

Question

I have a QTreeView in which each node represents a data object. I managed to pack a pointer to this data objects into a QVariant so that I know which is selected in the Tree. I can access the nodes by the currentIndex() function.

The root of the Tree is at QStandardItemModel::invisibleRootItem(). Other nodes are added by the parent nodes appendRow function. So the Items have no row and column that I can use in QStandardItemModel::item().

Is there a way to give the nodes valid coordinates or to retrieve the items without coordinates.

Answer 1

In QStandardItemModel, there is a item(int row, int column = 0) method. Qt nomenclature doesn't use 'get' as prefix of getters methods.
