QVariant v(1 | 32);
That is:
QVariant v(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled);
In case your combo box is using a QStandardItemModel (which it does by default) then you may stay away from the Qt::UserRole -1 hack
const QStandardItemModel* model = qobject_cast<const QStandardItemModel*>(ui->comboBox->model());
QStandardItem* item = model->item(1);
-
item->setFlags(disable ? item->flags() & ~(Qt::ItemIsSelectable|Qt::ItemIsEnabled)
-
Qt::ItemIsSelectable|Qt::ItemIsEnabled));
// visually disable by greying out - works only if combobox has been painted already and palette returns the wanted color
item->setData(disable ? ui->comboBox->palette().color(QPalette::Disabled, QPalette::Text) -
QVariant(), // clear item data in order to use default color
Qt::TextColorRole);
