The Items Tab Page

The unlabeled list view on the left-hand side of the dialog shows the items similarly to how they will be shown in the actual list view in your application. The columns you see here are the columns you have specified in the Columns tab page (see next section). By default there is only one column called Column 1.

New Item

Click on this button to insert a new top-level item into the list view. By default it will have the name New Item.

New Subitem

Click on this button to insert a new item that is a child of the currently selected item. By default it will have the name Subitem.

Delete Item

Click on this button to delete the currently selected item. Be careful: if this item has child items, they are deleted as well. This is the default behavior of QListView, which is why Qt Designer does the same.

Arrow Buttons

With the up and down buttons you can move an entry up and down but not out of its hierarchical level.

With the left and right buttons you can move an entry one level up or down in the hierarchy.

Item Properties

In this area you can specify the pixmap and the label to be displayed for any of the columns of the currently selected item. To change anything, you first select the column to be modified in the Column box. To change the label, enter the new text in the Text field. To assign or change a pixmap which is displayed next to the word Pixmap, click on the button labeled ... . Clicking on the scissors icon removes the pixmap so that the current column of the current item displays only a label.
