QTableView and margin

**miraks** · 27th April 2009, 10:44

Hi,

I modified my QTableView to clean selection when the user click on blank area.

My problem is that, when the QTableView contains many lines, there is no blank area on bottom of it.

So, how can I add blank area on bottom of a QTableView ?

Regards,
Stephane

What's about QAbstractScrollArea::setViewportMargins()?

Hi Lykurg,

I tried to put the following line in the constructor of my QTableView but it doesn't work:

Qt Code:

Switch view

setViewportMargins(0, 0, 0, 200);

setViewportMargins(0, 0, 0, 200);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Why ? Do you know how to use it ?

Regards.

An idea ? Please help !

Please can you post a small - executable - sample code demonstrating your problem. That would be easier.

It's not easy to isolate code and I think it's not needed because I found this:

Do you have an other idea ?

i dont know why you would like to have blank area..if you really want to clear selection, why dont you just provide a button outside of tableview..and clear selection on its click..i guess its more user intuitive too..i'd agree with Qt guys for not solving the "bug" since its not really necessary.
