QMenuBar corner widget not aligned to right edge
-
Trying to add a button as corner widget. In Qt Designer I created the menubar and button (but its not assigned to layout etc). Then in constructor, I'm calling
ui.menu->setCornerWidget(ui.cornerbutton);but there is always some spacing on the right side of button, how do I adjust the margin/spacing on right?

Figured out the problem. Essentially what's happening is that Qt is going by some minimum width (~200px). Since I was setting button width around 50px, the remaining space was showing up as margin/spacing between button and edge.
Solution is to either increase the width of the button or add it to a layout inside another widget, and set that widget as corner widget, so even if Qt resizes the widget to a larger size, the button inside can still remain the desired width.

Hi,
Based on the method documentation the widget is out right after the rightmost item in the menu bar so it's likely what you see.

@SGaist The menubar has 4 items and when window opens its maximized, so there is a lot of space between last menubar item and corner widget/button. Its weird that it isnt positioned to right edge.
