Detailed Description¶
The PySide.QtGui.QListView class provides a list or icon view onto a model.
A PySide.QtGui.QListView presents items stored in a model, either as a simple non-hierarchical list, or as a collection of icons. This class is used to provide lists and icon views that were previously provided by the QListBox and QIconView classes, but using the more flexible approach provided by Qt’s model/view architecture.
The PySide.QtGui.QListView class is one of the Model/View Classes and is part of Qt’s model/view framework .
This view does not display horizontal or vertical headers; to display a list of items with a horizontal header, use PySide.QtGui.QTreeView instead.
PySide.QtGui.QListView implements the interfaces defined by the PySide.QtGui.QAbstractItemView class to allow it to display data provided by models derived from the PySide.QtCore.QAbstractItemModel class.
Items in a list view can be displayed using one of two view modes: In ListMode , the items are displayed in the form of a simple list; in IconMode , the list view takes the form of an icon view in which the items are displayed with icons like files in a file manager. By default, the list view is in ListMode . To change the view mode, use the PySide.QtGui.QListView.setViewMode() function, and to determine the current view mode, use PySide.QtGui.QListView.viewMode() .
Items in these views are laid out in the direction specified by the PySide.QtGui.QListView.flow() of the list view. The items may be fixed in place, or allowed to move, depending on the view’s PySide.QtGui.QListView.movement() state.
If the items in the model cannot be completely laid out in the direction of flow, they can be wrapped at the boundary of the view widget; this depends on PySide.QtGui.QListView.isWrapping() . This property is useful when the items are being represented by an icon view.
The PySide.QtGui.QListView.resizeMode() and PySide.QtGui.QListView.layoutMode() govern how and when the items are laid out. Items are spaced according to their PySide.QtGui.QListView.spacing() , and can exist within a notional grid of size specified by PySide.QtGui.QListView.gridSize() . The items can be rendered as large or small icons depending on their PySide.QtGui.QAbstractItemView.iconSize() .
A Windows XP style list view. A Macintosh style list view. A Plastique style list view.
Improving Performance¶
It is possible to give the view hints about the data it is handling in order to improve its performance when displaying large numbers of items. One approach that can be taken for views that are intended to display items with equal sizes is to set the PySide.QtGui.QListView.uniformItemSizes() property to true.

- class PySide.QtGui.QListView([parent=None])¶
Parameters: parent – PySide.QtGui.QWidget Creates a new PySide.QtGui.QListView with the given parent to view a model. Use PySide.QtGui.QAbstractItemView.setModel() to set the model.
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.ResizeMode¶
Constant Description QListView.Fixed The items will only be laid out the first time the view is shown. QListView.Adjust The items will be laid out every time the view is resized.
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.LayoutMode¶
Constant Description QListView.SinglePass The items are laid out all at once. QListView.Batched The items are laid out in batches of PySide.QtGui.QListView.batchSize() items. See also
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.ViewMode¶
Constant Description QListView.ListMode The items are laid out using TopToBottom flow, with Small size and Static movement QListView.IconMode The items are laid out using LeftToRight flow, with Large size and Free movement
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.Flow¶
Constant Description QListView.LeftToRight The items are laid out in the view from the left to the right. QListView.TopToBottom The items are laid out in the view from the top to the bottom.
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.Movement¶
Constant Description QListView.Static The items cannot be moved by the user. QListView.Free The items can be moved freely by the user. QListView.Snap The items snap to the specified grid when moved; see PySide.QtGui.QListView.setGridSize() .
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.batchSize()¶
Return type: PySide.QtCore.int This property holds the number of items laid out in each batch if PySide.QtGui.QListView.layoutMode() is set to Batched .
The default value is 100.
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.clearPropertyFlags()¶
Clears the PySide.QtGui.QListView -specific property flags. See PySide.QtGui.QListView.viewMode() .
Properties inherited from PySide.QtGui.QAbstractItemView are not covered by the property flags. Specifically, PySide.QtGui.QAbstractItemView.dragEnabled() and acceptsDrops are computed by PySide.QtGui.QListView when calling PySide.QtGui.QListView.setMovement() or PySide.QtGui.QListView.setViewMode() .
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.contentsSize()¶
Return type: PySide.QtCore.QSize
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.flow()¶
Return type: PySide.QtGui.QListView.Flow This property holds which direction the items layout should flow..
If this property is LeftToRight , the items will be laid out left to right. If the PySide.QtGui.QListView.isWrapping() property is true, the layout will wrap when it reaches the right side of the visible area. If this property is TopToBottom , the items will be laid out from the top of the visible area, wrapping when it reaches the bottom.
Setting this property when the view is visible will cause the items to be laid out again.
By default, this property is set to TopToBottom .
See also
- PySide.QtGui.QListView.gridSize()¶
Return type: PySide.QtCore.QSize This property holds the size of the layout grid.
This property is the size of the grid in which the items are laid out. The default is an empty size which means that there is no grid and the layout is not done in a grid. Setting this property to a non-empty size switches on the grid layout. (When a grid layout is in force the PySide.QtGui.QListView.spacing() property is ignored.)
Setting this property when the view is visible will cause the items to be laid out again.
