[PyQt] Questions: QstandardItemModel and moveRow

[Gottfried Müller]

Hi,

a bigger barrier for me again. I want to move one item in a 
QStandardItemModel. I have no idea why my example does not work. I want 
to move item "5" as a child of item "1" and at the end if the children. 
But nothing happens. Why? And can I find any messages about the reason. 
And how I can move an item "6" for example as a sibling of items "0" and 
"4". What is there the parent?
