Best way to graphically represent a tree node in Qt

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to visualise a tree in Qt.

So far, all my nodes consist of simple circles and based on QGraphicsItem class. But I need to display some text over every node, how can I "attach" a QLabel to my nodes?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Well, why don't you use QTreeView to view your tree ? You just have to subclass QAbstractItemModel with your own model and use it.

Answer 2

You can use a QGraphicsTextItem on your nodes.

QGraphicsTextItem *nodeText = new QGraphicsTextItem("TEXT LABEL", nodeItem);
