How should I learn about context menu's? Any good resources? / Object specific context menu

[bartvrossum]

Hi,

I want to learn about context menu. Is there any good resource or course that covers it?
Can you have context menu's for specific items in the applications? Let's say, for a QLabel, or for a QTextTabel inside a QTextEdit?

Appreciate the help. :)

Hi,

Take a look at the Menus Example.

It is explained for the QMainWindow class but it's also valid for others as explained at the bottom of the page.

I kinda get stuck on the "whats the difference between contextMenuEvent() and setContextMenuPolicy()" stuff and on the fact that when i put down this code in my own project:

protected:
#ifndef QT_NO_CONTEXTMENU
    void contextMenuEvent(QContextMenuEvent *event) override;
#endif // QT_NO_CONTEXTMENU

I get this error:

What's up with this?

Exactly what is written there...

If you redefine a function, you have to mark it as "override".

Put the override behind your function header and the warning is gone (in your case: destructor)
