ui detect mouse event on objects

[mpergand]

@Pfanne said in ui detect mouse event on objects:

connect(ioGroup, &QButtonGroup::idClicked, this, MainWindow::on_ioGroup_clicked);

As I said earlier, you have to pass an address:

connect(ioGroup, &QButtonGroup::idClicked, this, &MainWindow::on_ioGroup_clicked);

OIC I missed that when OP said it was correct.

You can see for yourself (when it's written in monospace) that in your
connect(ioGroup, &QButtonGroup::idClicked, this, MainWindow::on_ioGroup_clicked);

one method reference has a preceding & and the other does not, and thereby tell what you had is not correct.

@JonB

connect(ioGroup, &QButtonGroup::idClicked, this, MainWindow::on_ioGroup_clicked);

OK, I think I understand, but this try worked, without ID but it creates a event on every click.
Without the reference (&) to MainWindow....

But it´s OK, this try:

connect(ioGroup, SIGNAL(idClicked(int)), this, SLOT(on_ioGroup_clicked(int)));

is exactly the way that I use (SIGNAL -> SLOT) for my other connections.

Thanks for your support!

But you should switch to the pmf syntax for your own sake.

@Christian-Ehrlicher

should I use the pmf syntax only for object events or also for function events too?

@Pfanne

What are object or function events from your perspective?
You can't connect events, you connect signals there.
And yes, use the function pointer connection style. Every time you make a signal connection
