So I figured out how to display images in QListView: Here is how I did it
import sys
import os
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore
class MyListModel(QtCore.QAbstractListModel):
def __init__(self, datain, parent=None, *args):
""" datain: a list where each item is a row
"""
QtCore.QAbstractListModel.__init__(self, parent, *args)
self.listdata = datain
def rowCount(self, parent=QtCore.QModelIndex()):
return len(self.listdata)
def data(self, index, role):
if index.isValid() and role == QtCore.Qt.DecorationRole:
return QtGui.QIcon(QtGui.QPixmap(self.listdata[index.row()]))
if index.isValid() and role == QtCore.Qt.DisplayRole:
return QtCore.QVariant(os.path.splitext(os.path.split(self.listdata[index.row()])[-1])[0])
else:
return QtCore.QVariant()
class MyListView(QtGui.QListView):
"""docstring for MyListView"""
def __init__(self):
super(MyListView, self).__init__()
# show in Icon Mode
self.setViewMode(QtGui.QListView.IconMode)
crntDir = "/usr/test1/Desktop"
# create table
list_data = []
philes = os.listdir(crntDir)
for phile in philes:
if phile.endswith(".png"):
list_data.append(os.path.join(crntDir, phile))
lm = MyListModel(list_data, self)
self.setModel(lm)
self.show()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = MyListView()
window.show()
window.raise_()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
but now I need how I can have all images displayed of same thumbnail size and the filename should not move them around instead file name should wrap to next line !!! how should I achieve that.
Aspect ratio of a thumbnail in Qt is controlled by the
scaled()method ofQPixmap. This method also provides the option to control the size of thumbnail. Call this method on your original pixmap and it will return a new pixmap with the specifiedsizeandAspectRatioMode.
