Multiple Selection QTreeWidget

Question

Does anyone know if its possible to select multiple items on a QTreeWidget and how to go about enabling the multiple selection?

All the items I want to be selectable are top level QTreeWidgetItems and all their children are set to be disabled (i.e QTreeWidgetItem.setDisabled(True) )

HA! Found it -> QTreeWidgetItem.setSelectionMode( QAbstractItemView.MultiSelection ) I found that bit of code while trying to make a multi selectable QListW — Jay, Aug 03 '11 at 12:13

It is, you'll want to call setSelectionMode during init to enable QAbstractItemView::MultiSelection. QTreeView/QTreeWidget inherit QAbstractItemView, so it is available.

Then to disable the items, just hook on to QTreeWidgets.itemSelectionChanged() signal.

It should be `QAbstractItemView.MultiSelection` – RedSoft Dec 21 '19 at 14:17
