This is my first entry here so apologies for any newbie mistakes. I\'ve searched both here and Google with no luck before posting.

I want to be able to add images to

Found out how PySide signals work in the end. Here's the PyQt4 code above, ported to PySide. I'd love to hear if there are better solutions out there.

import sys
import os
from PySide import QtGui, QtCore

class TestListView(QtGui.QListWidget):

    fileDropped = QtCore.Signal(list)

    def __init__(self, type, parent=None):
        super(TestListView, self).__init__(parent)
        self.setAcceptDrops(True)
        self.setIconSize(QtCore.QSize(72, 72))

    def dragEnterEvent(self, event):
        if event.mimeData().hasUrls:
            event.accept()
        else:
            event.ignore()

    def dragMoveEvent(self, event):
        if event.mimeData().hasUrls:
            event.setDropAction(QtCore.Qt.CopyAction)
            event.accept()
        else:
            event.ignore()

    def dropEvent(self, event):
        if event.mimeData().hasUrls:
            event.setDropAction(QtCore.Qt.CopyAction)
            event.accept()
            links = []
            for url in event.mimeData().urls():
                links.append(str(url.toLocalFile()))
            self.fileDropped.emit(links)
        else:
            event.ignore()

class MainForm(QtGui.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        super(MainForm, self).__init__(parent)

        self.view = TestListView(self)
        self.view.fileDropped.connect(self.pictureDropped)
        self.setCentralWidget(self.view)

    def pictureDropped(self, l):
        for url in l:
            if os.path.exists(url):
                print(url)                
                icon = QtGui.QIcon(url)
                pixmap = icon.pixmap(72, 72)                
                icon = QtGui.QIcon(pixmap)
                item = QtGui.QListWidgetItem(url, self.view)
                item.setIcon(icon)        
                item.setStatusTip(url)        

def main():
    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
    form = MainForm()
    form.show()
    app.exec_()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
