Hi, Which version of Qt ? On which OS ? What is the text that is supposed to be shown ? Please provide a minimal compilable example that shows the issue.

Thanks for the report. You should add which distribution you are using as well as desktop environment (KDE, Gnome, etc.) and window manager (Xorg, Wayland, etc) and their respective versions.

@Jammin44fm OK I've solved it. The entire application has a Stylesheet applied, including settings for a QMenu, and QMenu item, with custom padding. By overriding the padding for the specific Menu in question I am setting the left padding to be the check icon size smaller than the normal padding size. Now when the menu is draw it is consistent in padding size with all other menu's. I still dont think i should have to do it this way, but it's working.

@JonB that works. Don't know why I didn't try that, other than getting lost in all the overloads that involved signals/slots. The simplest one with just a QString argument does the trick. Thanks!

Well, Qt has both a QMenu and a QMenuItem. Only the QMenuItem is supposed to trigger actions. The QMenu itself only has QMenuItems and submenus. So, its action is already defined. Usually, the QMenuItems have QActions associated with it. For the QMenu::triggered signal the documentation states: This signal is emitted when an action in this menu is triggered. To me this reads that you have several entries inside the QMenu and one of these entries triggers an action. This is also why this signal contains the QAction as a parameter. My understanding would mean that clicking on the QMenu itself does not emit a triggered signal, but only clicking on a QMenuItem does.

@SGaist said in QMenu And QSqlQueryModel translation problem !: QEvent::LanguageChange @ SGaist Hi bro <3 i didn't know about QEvent::LanguageChange before really thank you, i will check it <3

Hi, You can use the QToolBar::toolButtonStyle property and set it to Qt::ToolButtonIconOnly.

I am using version 6.5.2. and I also have this bug.

It's likely something that is highly specific to your device. What is it running to manage its GUI ?

Depending on how your wrote your stylesheet it will take precedence on the rest of your changes.

@mrjj I have the following stylesheet applied to a containing widget QMenu, QMenu QPushButton { background-color: #303030; color: white } When I remove the QMenu selector, the white line disappears (hence it starts looking like this) [image: 5a161ee4-3e8d-419a-8680-e774d2c01e70.png] I cannot say whether the white line really disappears or it just blends with the white color of the menu item. After applying the same style with a QMenu::item selector, I get the following: [image: 134815d0-278a-4a93-af33-bbdd63c68ea2.png] The ordinary menu items are colored, but those created by my class are not. It appears as if the ::menuItem selector does not work on them. I also tried setting the following style rule on the container returned by the createWidget function container->setStyleSheet(".MenuItem {background-color: #303030; color: white; }"); and it oddly makes the custom menu items get shifted to the left and the hover effects on them do not seem to work any longer. Applying padding/margin does not fix it: [image: e5b252c8-4e60-4a32-b13e-794608842129.png]

@ThePyGuy Hi Im not sure its possible as QMenu get all the events when open. https://forum.qt.io/topic/34557/solved-prevent-qmenu-from-being-modal

It might be an issue with macOS 10.15. One thing you can do as a workaround is to disable the native macOS menu bar. You will have it on the QMainWindow but it should be usable.

Old lasting bug ... [image: Popup-1.png] [image: Popup2.png] Funny things happen in full screen ... In this screenshots you can see an another bug : the checkmark ✓ doesn't follow the font size of the menu. [image: Popup3.png]

@Christian-Ehrlicher The widget that needs to show the context menu is a QTableView, not a QComboBox.

Thank you @SGaist ! I figured it was something along those lines but couldn't put my finger on it.

QMenuBar { spacing: 0px; } That did it! Thank you very much!

@dariusz Well the QMenu will still treat it as one item so its also kinda pretending :) I agree. you could also make a complete custom popup (like the drop down in ComboBox) type of menu and open it from a button but its harder to integrated with the rest of the QMenu if you have such one.
