Temporarily disable UI update of a QTableView

Question

I have a QStandardItemModel that provides data for a QTableView and a thread that inserts data into the model.

Is it possible to temporarily stop the model from updating the table view, and enable it later?

Answer 1

you can use setUpdatesEnabled(bool) in your view to dis and enable the updates; maybe blockSignals(bool) could also be interesting calling it on your model; it should prevent the view from recieving the models update signals
