[Solved] QAction - how to distinguish middle click

nowrep

Hello,
is it possible to distinguish middle mouse click from normal (left) click on QAction in QMenu?
I tried subclassing QAction and reimplementing event(QEvent*) function, but this function is called only once, on Action creation.

Thanks for any help.

event itself will not help, as it is no UI object. You could subclass QMenu and do it there.

Thanks for tip. Will test it and post results.

EDIT: Thanks very much, it worked like charm :-)

If someone want to see the code, there it is (I also subclassed QAction to support middleClicked() signal)
@
void Menu::mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent e)
{
Action act = qobject_cast<Action*> (actionAt(e->pos()));

if (!act) {
    QMenu::mouseReleaseEvent(e);
    return;
}

if (e->button() == Qt::LeftButton) {
    act->trigger();
    close();
    e->accept();
}
else if (e->button() == Qt::MiddleButton) {
    act->triggerMiddleClick();
    close();
    e->accept();
}

}
