QCompleter & ToolTip

[nanortemis]

Hello,

How to add tooltips to QCompleter items??

[wysota]

Did you try setting the tooltip role for the model you are passing to QCompleter?

I tried to get ToolTip using below code

QCompleter *completer = new QCompleter(this);
QStandardItemModel *model = new QStandardItemModel(this);
model->setItem(0, new QStandardItem("test"));
model->item(0)->setToolTip("Tool Tip test");
completer->setModel(model);
completer->setCaseSensitivity(Qt::CaseInsensitive);
ui->lineEdit->setCompleter(completer);

QCompleter *completer = new QCompleter(this);
QStandardItemModel *model = new QStandardItemModel(this);
model->setItem(0, new QStandardItem("test"));
model->item(0)->setToolTip("Tool Tip test");
completer->setModel(model);
completer->setCaseSensitivity(Qt::CaseInsensitive);
ui->lineEdit->setCompleter(completer);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Code completion works but ToolTip is missing.
I used QStandardItemModel because it's possible to set tool tip for QStandardItem.

Hi,

I need also this feature, similar to VS C# code completion, completion items + tooltips for every compeltion.

Did you find any solution?
