QListWidget: selectedItems array never populates

[tamhanna]

Hi Folks,
I have a very strange issue: I have a List Widget, where I have linked the itemClicked slot to a signal. If I click an item, the _item parameter is perfect.

However, if I have an item selected, and the user opens the menu and enables the function below, the selection array is empty even if the list item is drawn as selected:

	if(ui.LstEntries->selectedItems().count()==0)
	{
		QMessageBox x(this);
		x.setText("No item is selected!");
		x.setIcon(QMessageBox::Warning);			
		x.exec();
		return;
	}
...

Ideas, anyone?

Great snippet. Could you provide small test application reproducing the problem?

Hi divanov,
I have to apologize for the delayed response. Let me explain again.

I have a QListWidget on my form, which is set up in icon mode. Whenever I select an item, the selectedItems() array remains empty. On the phone, a rectandle is drawn around it - but the array remains empty.

The only time when the selectedItems() array is populated, is when the item is being actively tapped.

All the best
