I am trying to create a QTableWidget that has a thumbnail image in it's vertical header (and eventually some text under it). My current attempt is to subclass the QTableWidgetItem...

class ShotHeader(qt.QTableWidgetItem):
    imagePath = os.path.join(r'T:\path\to\image.jpg')
    shotThumbnailPixMap = QPixmap(imagePath).scaledToWidth(60)

    def __init__(self):
        super(ShotHeader, self).__init__()
        self.setData(QtCore.Qt.DecorationRole, self.shotThumbnailPixMap)

And later on this is set via

shotInterface = QTableWidget(rows, cols)
for row in range(rows):
    shotInterface.setVerticalHeaderItem(row, ShotHeader())

Which does show the image, but it seems to be an icon which I cannot change the size of, as can be seen in the following image...

Obviously, I'm looking for a way to make the images a decent size, I have searched quite extensively for a solution to this problem, but have so far come up with nothing. No amount of scaling the QPixmap has any effect. I'd really appreciate some help on this.

NB: I'm running PyQt in Houdini if that makes any difference.

Will all the images be the same in each row? – eyllanesc Mar 09 '19 at 19:05
No, but for simplicity I have made it that way, so I'm just using the single shared QPixmap. – Anti-Distinctlyminty Mar 09 '19 at 19:24
Do you want to get something like the following? https://imgur.com/a/YA4PLQ4 – eyllanesc Mar 09 '19 at 20:54
Yes, but with a larger image if possible. – Anti-Distinctlyminty Mar 09 '19 at 21:21
Is it something like the following: https://imgur.com/a/j1Lru7s? – eyllanesc Mar 09 '19 at 21:25
Yes...how did you achieve this? – Anti-Distinctlyminty Mar 09 '19 at 21:30

Wait a moment, I'm working on setting the size automatically, now the drawing is fine but now I'm manually changing the size of the cell – eyllanesc Mar 09 '19 at 21:39
