QGraphicsScene resets buttonScenePos when a different button is clicked
-
While moving mouse with button pressed (say LMB) I can get the place where the user started the "drag" with QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent::buttonDownScenePos(Qt::MouseButton button), like so:
@mouseEvent->buttonDownScenePos(Qt::LeftButton)@But, if during the move the user presses another button (say, RMB) the position gets reset to (0,0).
Once again: user presses LMB at point X, moves mouse to point Y, buttonDownScenePos(Qt::LeftButton) reports properly, user presses RMB (without releasing RMB), buttonDownScenePos(Qt::LeftButton) returns (0,0).
My question is: is this a bug in Qt or is it intended? If intended doesn't it at least deserve a note in the documentation?
I realise that this is painfully easy to work around, but after spending the better half of today looking for this I'd like to know the reason why.
Note: I'm using Qt 5.2.1
Note 2: I'm using 5.2.1 because it's the latest in Ubuntu repositories -
Hi,
Can you show the exact code where you are storing the original position ?
-
It's from my day job, under NDA and stuff, so I'll to mock something, but that's rather after new year.
Anyway, the whole point is I didn't store the original press position, but rather used event argument to get it. Which works fine unless the user presses another mouse button while still holding the first one.

Why not store it ?
If you take the event when the user presses the RMB after the LMB, it seems logical that the value returned for LMB is 0 since this is a new press event triggered by a different button.
