QSortFilterProxyModel does not apply Caseinsensitive

As I've subclassed QSortFilterModel to be able to search thru several coloumns in a QListView, the CaseInsensitive option no longer works. Ive tried to apply it as follows: 

class CustomSortFilterProxyModel(QtCore.QSortFilterProxyModel):
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        super(CustomSortFilterProxyModel, self).__init__(parent)
        self.filterString = ''
        self.filterFunctions = {} 
        self.setFilterCaseSensitivity(QtCore.Qt.CaseInsensitive) #Applied here



    def setFilterString(self, text):

        self.filterString = str(text)
        self.setFilterCaseSensitivity(QtCore.Qt.CaseInsensitive)    #And applied here
        self.invalidateFilter()

    def filterAcceptsRow(self, row_num, parent):

        self.filterColumns = [1,3]    
        model = self.sourceModel()  
        row = model.row(row_num)
        tests = [self.filterString in row[col] for col in self.filterColumns]

        return True in tests

How come my search string is case sensitive?

The sensitivity you set there only applies to the default filterAcceptsRow implementation. If you override it, you'll need to handle this yourself, by doing something like:

return any(self.filterString.casefold() in row[col].casefold() for col in self.filterColumns))

(see the str.casefold docs)
