HoverEnterEvent being called when it shoudn't

leonardoMB

Here I have a situation Where I understand that HoverEnterEvent shoudn't be called.

I have a button class with an tooltip attribute, this tooltip always show up through the HoverEnterEvent and it is hidden through HoverLeaveEvent. It works perfectly. But I also implemented a functionality for the button that just opens a QMessageBox.

I realize that when I click the button, HoverLeaveEvent is called, I don't know why, but it's expected that behavior. But When I resolve the MessageBox the EnterHoverEvent of this button is called, what doesn't make sense for me. Since I'm not hovering it. What is happening?

Hi,

Where do you show your QMessageBox with respect to your button ?

@SGaist Basically I connected a signal that calls the slot responsible for creating the QMessageBox. The creation occurs inside this slot

...and/or additionally, possibly, where is your mouse with respect to the original button after you have dismissed the MessageBox?

I meant "physically" on your UI.

My mouse is far away from the button When I dismiss the MessageBox.
The MessageBox is not created upon the button, its away too.

Can you provide a minimal compilable example ?
Also which version of Qt ?
On which OS ?
