Qt drag and drop between two QListWidget

I've two QListWidget (list1 and list2)


list1->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::SingleSelection);
list1->setDragEnabled(true);
list1->setDragDropMode(QAbstractItemView::DragDrop);
list1->viewport()->setAcceptDrops(true);
list1->setDropIndicatorShown(true);

ulist2->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::SingleSelection);
list2->setDragEnabled(true);
list2->setDragDropMode(QAbstractItemView::InternalMove);
list2->viewport()->setAcceptDrops(true);
list2->setDropIndicatorShown(true);

I had to put the list2 on InternalMove otherwise the item is not remove when I drag it to the list1.

And if i put list1 to InternalMove i can't drop any more on it.

Do I have to write my own drag and drop function to do that?

You can extend QListWidget overriding dragMoveEvent method like below

#ifndef MYLISTWIDGET_HPP
#define MYLISTWIDGET_HPP

#include <QListWidget>

class MyListWidget : public QListWidget {

public:
    MyListWidget(QWidget * parent) :
        QListWidget(parent) {}

protected:
    void dragMoveEvent(QDragMoveEvent *e) {
        if (e->source() != this) {
            e->accept();
        } else {
            e->ignore();
        }
    }
};

#endif // MYLISTWIDGET_HPP

Inside our implementation we check the source of the drag event and we don't accept (allow) dropping items that come from our widget itself.
If you're using QtDesigner you can use Promote to... option from the context menu when you right click on the QListWidget on your form. You have to enter a name of your new class (MyListWidget in my example) and you have to enter a name of new header file, where your class will be declared (you can copy and paste the code above into this file).
