single Qt model/view different trees

[Bziur]

So I basically want to achieve sth like this:

|view1
|- file1
|   |- item1
|   |- item2
|- file2
|   |- item3
|   |- item4
|+ file3
...
 
view2
|- item1
|- item2
|- group1
|   |- item3
|   |- group2
|       |- item4
|- item5
...

|view1
|- file1
|   |- item1
|   |- item2
|- file2
|   |- item3
|   |- item4
|+ file3
...

view2
|- item1
|- item2
|- group1
|   |- item3
|   |- group2
|       |- item4
|- item5
...

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

with 1 model. Is it possible?

It depends whether "item1" from view1 and "item1" from view2 are supposed to be the same item or not. If yes then you need to go through an additional proxy model. If not then yes, it is possible directly by setting different root indexes in each view.

The question is: why one model?

Yes pretty much they are. I'll have a dip into this proxy model, even though technically it's another model isn't it?

The question is: why one model?

Because I want them to be bound, so let's say I select a group of items in view2, and I want these items to be selected in view1 and the group to be selected in my custom QGraphicsView. I want to be able to hide these items using both of the views etc. So it seems to make most sense using model/view approach.

Yes, however there is only one set of data and one place where the data is managed.
