The code below works fine for me. Your problem is probably elsewhere. This is for Qt 5 due to use of Qt Quick Controls.
There are two views accessing the same model, this visually confirms that the model emits proper signals to inform the views of the changes. The page additions and removals are done via the standard insertRows
and removeRows
methods, exported through Q_INVOKABLE
. There's no need for any custom methods on this model, so far. The Q_INVOKABLE
is a workaround for some missing functionality for the interface between QML and QAbstractItemModel
.
