In order to shrink the problem I made a small verifiable example of a small gui. If you would like to take a glance at the code you can see it here.
I have a specific string on a QLineEdit
, this string is passed to a QListView
via QPushButton
as shown below. Those strings are choices of a QComboBox
and they are very specific: 1) "[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 5", 2) "[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 10" and 3) "[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 15"
The problem: How can I detect the specific QString
content inside a QListView
in order to change the background color of a QGraphicsView
?
For example if inside the QListView
there is "[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 5", the color of the QGraphicsView
should be red or if inside the QListView
there is "[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 10", the color of the QGraphicsView
should be yellow etc.

, ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
mView = new QGraphicsView();
mScene = new QGraphicsScene();
ui->graphicsView->setScene(mScene);
mText = new QGraphicsTextItem;
mText->setPos(150,70);
mScene->addText(tr("Boat outside alarm area"))->setDefaultTextColor(Qt::black);
model = new QStringListModel();
ui->listView->setModel(model);
ui->listView->setEditTriggers(QAbstractItemView::NoEditTriggers);
changeColorDetection();
}
MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
delete ui;
}
void MainWindow::changeColorDetection()
{
QColor red;
QColor yellow;
QColor green;
// if [ INFO] Minimum Distance: 5 inside QListView
// Than change color of the QGraphicsView background to red
// if [ INFO] Minimum Distance: 10 inside QListView
// Than change color of the QGraphicsView background to yellow
QModelIndex index = ui->listView->currentIndex();
QString itemText = index.data(Qt::DisplayRole).toString();
if(itemText.startsWith("[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 10"))
{
ui->graphicsView->setStyleSheet("QGraphicsView {background-color: red}");
}
}
void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
{
QString str = ui->lineEdit->text();
model->insertRow(model->rowCount());
QModelIndex index = model->index(model->rowCount()-1);
model->setData(index, str);
}
void MainWindow::on_comboBox_currentIndexChanged(const QString &arg1)
{
QString list = ui->comboBox->currentText();
ui->lineEdit->setText(list);
Q_UNUSED(arg1)
}

What I have done so far:
I have been doinf a lot of research about this problem and came across this source which was useful but could not solve the problem, but in addition it seems to use a QModelIndex
and I am not sure this is exactly what I need for this small project.
Also I read this source which was useful to establish and capture the specific and unique string but in terms of changing colors I could not solve that.
I also came across this which led me to give a try to the following:
void MainWindow::changeColorDetection()
{
// if [ INFO] Minimum Distance: 5 inside QListView
// Than change color of the QGraphicsView background
QModelIndex index = ui->listView->currentIndex();
QString itemText = index.data(Qt::DisplayRole).toString();
if(itemText.startsWith("[ INFO] Minimum Distance: 10"))
{
QColor bg = ui->graphicsView->palette().background().color();
ui->graphicsView->setStyleSheet(QString("background-color:") + bg.name(QColor::HexArgb));
}
}
But also this last one did not result in any change in the background.
What am I missing? Thank you very much for pointing to the right direction for solving this issue.
