QTreeView branches and their clickable area not coinciding - abstracted - Mar-17-2017
I am creating a property editor that controls various document parameters. It is done using implementations of QTreeView, QAbstractItemModel, and QStyledItemDelegate. In the name of space usage and attractiveness I have un-indented the grandchildren of the (invisible) root node.
I did this by reimplementing QtyledItemDelegate.paint() and QTreeView.drawBranches() to remove 20 pixels (the default indentation) from the QRect of these items.
The problem is that while I can visually un-indent these rows, the area that is clickable to expand/collapse the row does not move (see the image below).
How could I fix this? I have provided code snippets below.
I have an image showing what I mean here, but it appears I cannot add it due to this being my first post. Nevertheless you can see it on my post on stackoverflow -- stackoverflow.com/questions/42600271/qtreeview-branches-and-their-clickable-area-not-coinciding
