pyqt-editable-list-widget

Easily editable QListWidget

General Info

In this QListWidget, persistent editor is automatically activated/deactivated when calling the addItem.

Persistent editor will be closed if you press enter or up or down key or click somewhere else after editing.

If you want to add the item consecutively, use setConsecutiveAddWhenEnterPressed(f: bool). You can add a new item again.

You can edit existing items to double-click it or press F2.

You have to call closeIfPersistentEditorStillOpen() before addItem. If you don't, old editor still remain open even though new editor was already opened.
