how to EnsureVisible a newly added item on qlistwidget in python?

Question

when i added an item in a qlistwiget and reaches the bottom. A scroll bar appears, how can i ensurevisible an item that was newly added from the qlistwidget? Or how can i get the focus to the last index?

Answer 1

QListWidget inherits from QAbstractItemView, which has the methods you are looking for:

• You can use QAbstractItemView.scrollTo(ModelIndex index), using the index of your newly added item.
• Alternatively, since your item is always appended to the end of the list, just call QAbstractItemView.scrollToBottom().

Answer 2

After creating the new QListWidgetItem, pass it to QListWidget.scrollToItem to ensure that it becomes visible.

Note that scrollToItem also has a scroll hint parameter that allows fine-tuning of how the item is re-positioned in the list widget.
