How do I tell QListView to resize to fit?

I have a QListView and have assigned a model and a delegate. I am using it to display images in a horizontal bar as below

enter image description here

On a user event, data is updated in the model. One such event causes the width of the images to be reduced like below(#4).

enter image description here

I emit a dataChanged on the corresponding index and only the concerned widget is repainted. Because of this, there is a gap between #4 and #5 which does not get filled. I am thinking that there must be a way to refresh all visible rows - but am unable to find it.

I tried the following, but they do not work:

1. viewport()->updateGeometries()

2. viewport()->update()

3. I tried changing the width to see if it refreshes
    int curWidth = mp_mylistview->width();
    this->mp_mylistview->setFixedWidth(curWidth + 1);
    this->mp_mylistview->setFixedWidth(curWidth);

Any suggestions?

Solution

  • All I had to do was to emit layoutChanged() as a follow up to the dataChanged().
