Hi there,

I need to stop autoscrolling of the table widget when a new row is added via appendLine or insertLineN function. Whenever I call either of these functions, table scroll automatically moves to the location where the entry is added. How do I possibly disable this functionality in order to keep the scrollbar in the same line location?

Thanks in advance.

You can try if the attribute "updatesEnabled" helps to solve the problem.
Otherwise you can
-- get the current visible line range
-- save the information
-- make the changes in the table
-- scroll back to the saved visible line range

Hi Leopold, happy new year!

I found the answer in another thread, forgot to update here. There is an attribute called "stop" for the table widget but it is not documented. That solved my problem.
