add properties of QLineEdit to QTable Widget in Qt

I want to add a Table Widget in my application. But some properties which I want are not supported for Table Widget, but are available for QLineEdit. For example Validator, PlaceHolderText, etc properties from QLineEdit. I want to have these properties for individual cells of Table Widget. I don't want to add QLineEdit in my GUI, only Table Widget. Is it possible to do this? Thank You.

I think, you can change those cells to be a QLineEdit by setCellWidget, and use its functionality :

the_table_widget->setCellWidget(row, col, new QLineEdit);

Create a QStyledItemDelegate subclass that draws the text or placeholder text as normal (it can do this without reimplementing), but produces a QLineEdit as it's editor widget.

Add it using QTableWidget::setItemDelegate(QAbstractItemDelegate* delegate).
