Tooltips are not visible while hovering over menu items
-
I used the designer to create a menu and add tool tips. However, when I hover over the items in the menu the tool tips do not show up. Does anyone know how to fix this?
@Suroh6
Should work from Qt 5.1

@mrjj I was also under the impression that it was fixed but it's not, or at least I'm still having an issue with it.
Update:
Yep even with toolTipsVisible -
Hi,
Which version of Qt are you using ? On which platform ?

@Suroh6
Even with toolTipsVisible it still do not show?Update:
Hmm, yes. It seems not to want to display the tooltip from the QAction when inside menu.
Qt 5.7@SGaist I apologize for not getting back to you faster. Someone took out a telephone pole near my home and it took a few days for the internet to come back up. I'm using 5.7. The ToolTips will not display no matter what I do. As for the platform the issue is present on both windows 10 and linux. (Ubuntu 16.10)

Can you check with a more recent version of Qt ? 5.8 is the current and there's 5.9Beta that is available.

Can you provide a minimal compilable sample that triggers this ?

@SGaist I cannot. I was testing to see if it worked because in the past it hadn't. It's for that reason I elected to use the designer to setup a menu. So as to avoid writing the code only to find that the tool tips didn't work. At this point the only example I can provide is just saying "Setup a basic menu via the designer and you'll see the tool tips wont work".
I guess the best thing I can do is fill out a bug report.

@Suroh6
When you file a bug report, they will ask for a sample :)
If you designed one in Designer, you can grab the code from the
setupUI() in mainwindow.
also the original bug report shows a workaround
