QTreeWidgetItem multiple selection using keyboard

I have a QTreeWidgetItem. I am able to set a multiple selection mode using setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::MultipleSelection). In this case the user is able to select the items without using keyboard. When one clicks on an item it has become selected.

How can I make it selectable only using CTRL or Shift?

Solution

  • QAbstractItemView::ExtendedSelection should provide the expected behaviour.
