QML ListView Model setProperty Work only 1 time-CodePudding

I have a ListView filled with checkboxes, I want to change the checkbox status from a button click this is my code.

import QtQuick
import QtQuick.Controls 2.15

Window {
    width: 640
    height: 480
    visible: true
    title: qsTr("Hello World")

    ListView {
        id: mylist
        width: parent.width
        height: 300
        anchors {
            top: parent.top
            left: parent.left
            right: parent.right
            bottom: change_state.top
            bottomMargin: 20
        }

        model: ListModel {
            id: mymodel
            ListElement {
                mystatus : false
            }
            ListElement {
                mystatus : false
            }
            ListElement {
                mystatus : false
            }
        }

        delegate: Rectangle {
            height: 50
            width: parent.width
            CheckBox {
                id: cb
                checked: mystatus
                anchors.fill: parent
                text: "State"
            }
        }
    }

    Button {
        id: change_state
        anchors {
            bottom: parent.bottom
        }
        text: "Change status"

        onClicked: {
            mymodel.setProperty(1, "mystatus", true)
            console.log("PRESSED")
        }
    }
}

The problem is when I press the button after running the app it changes the status and checks the box, but if I remove the check manually then press the button again it has 0 effects, never been able to check it again.

QT 6.3 Windows 10 same issue for Android, IOS, and Desktop.

Tested with QT 5.15.2 and the same issue.

CodePudding user response：

When you click on the checkbox itself, you break the binding. Initially the checked property is bound to mystatus. But when you check the box manually, you're forcing checked to be true or false, regardless of the state of mystatus.

You can keep the binding intact by catching the onClicked signal and updating mystatus, rather than forcing the checked value to change.

CheckBox {
    id: cb
    checked: mystatus
    anchors.fill: parent
    text: "State"

    onClicked: {
        mystatus = !mystatus
    }
}

UPDATE:

For your added question of unchecking all the boxes, you should do the same thing as above and update the mystatus value in the model rather than directly touching the checked property so that the binding doesn't get broken.

for (var i = 0; i < mymodel.count;   i) {
    mymodel.setProperty(i, "mystatus", false);
}
