Hi Jorge,

if I try to use setCurrentText in a simple example, I do not observe any
problems, the text just gets set.
Have you been able to track down the problem?
And if not, can you produce a minimal program that displays your problem and
send it in along with the versions of Python, Qt, sip and PyQt?

Maybe you should first call insertItem(..) and then setCurrentItem(...)?


greetings

Torsten
