QGraphicsScene hover*Events to all item under mouse cursor.

ABDU

@SGaist Please excuse me if I misunderstand something. But as I understand it, you want me to make children as the parent of the DiagramItem? That is:

From this:
DiagramItem
|_SizeGripItem
|_"future item"

To this:
SizeGripItem
|_DiagramItem

"future item"
|_DiagramItem

But is that really to have more than one parent? Sorry for not showing the hierarchy initially.

SGaist

I meant to stack them differently, so future on top of size grip on top of main item.

Are you grouping them ?

@SGaist No, I'm not grouping them, just parenting. Here is the code of how item is created. ArrowManager is "future item". Just temporary name.

DiagramItem *DiagramScene::createDiagramItem(int diagramType)
{
    DiagramItem* diagramItem = new DiagramItem(DiagramItem::DiagramType(diagramType));

    SizeGripItem* sizeGripItem =
            new SizeGripItem(new PathResizer, diagramItem);

    new ArrowManager(diagramItem);

    connect(sizeGripItem, &SizeGripItem::resizeBeenMade,
            diagramItem,  &DiagramItem::updateTextItemPosition);

    connect(diagramItem, &DiagramItem::itemPositionChanged,
            this,        &DiagramScene::drawLevelLineWithItemOnSameAxis);

    connect(diagramItem, &DiagramItem::itemReleased,
            this,        &DiagramScene::deleteAllLevelLines);

    return diagramItem;
}

Out of curiosity, why are you making three different items for what seems to be only one in the end ?

ABDU

@SGaist It seemed to me that this is the easiest and most convenient option, that is, to manage everything separately. Yes, maybe this is not the best option, but due to my inexperience, nothing better comes to my mind except this option.

SGaist

Can you share a minimal compilable example ?

That will allow to better understand your implementation and what is happening.

ABDU

@SGaist Of course, but it will take some time. How is it convenient for you to provide the code? Should I leave the pieces of code here in this way:

DiagramItem.h

// DiagramItem definition code
// ...

DiagramItem.cpp

// DiagramItem implementation code
// ...

etc

// ...

or in some other way?

Thank you so much for your support!

SGaist

Either that or if you have a GitLab/GitHub/BitBucket/Other repo.

ABDU

@SGaist Here is a minimal example. I don't know if the example is small enough. But I tried to make it as small as possible.

I realized that my mistake was that I was creating separate elements when only one is created in the end. Having redone this, everything worked as it should. Thank you!
