Mac: How to display a context menu for a toolbar, when it's made "unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac"?
-
I use "unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac" to make the Mac version of my app look "native". I also want to display a context menu (right-click menu) for the toolbar, like you can do for the toolbar in Finder. I tried all possible ways that I found in the doc - they don't work. Can anyone help, please?

Thanks tamhanna, but this will not work. My situation is specific for the tool bar, when the main window has setting unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac.
I tried all means that I know to catch an event from the mouse click - I do not get any events. When unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac is ON, the toolbar becomes a part of the window header - you can drag the whole window by dragging the unused part of the toolbar. And it looks like Qt cancels all events.
Native Mac OS X apps do not cancel all events in this case. You can always right-click on such unified toolbar in a native Mac OS X app. Try Finder for example.

[quote author="tamhanna" date="1291459510"]Hi,
I use this to fake a context menu in my Qt for Symbian app:@

Is this for older Symbians? I thought Symbian^3 supports context menu at touch location. At least that was one of the big changes in the UI. I don't know if Qt has caught up with that yet. -
event filter can be a good workaround for any event-related issues
