You need to set the current item in the treeview. If you are using
QTreeWidget, you can use its setCurrentItem() method.

If you are using QTreeView, you need to access its selection model via its
selectionModel() method and call the model's setCurrentIndex() method with
a model index.

I think that should do what you want. If it doesn't, please let us know.
