Interal QMenuBars on Mac

Andaharoo

I have a windows application that I'd like to build for Mac. Everything goes fine except the menubars. I have 4 views in my application (like Maya or other 3d software) and above each window is a menubar. Unfortunately those disappear on Mac when that is not the intention. Is there any way to get them back without manually programming my own qmenubar?

Hi,

You might want to try with the QMainWindow:: unifiedTitleAndToolBarOnMac property.

Beware of the limitations described in the documentation.

Hope it helps

This didn't seem to do anything? I added an image to better show what I was describing. I have multiple widgets each with a menubar above them but they dissapear on Mac.

Can you show how you setup one of these widgets ?

They're initially in my UI file. A QWidget morphed into my own class ViewWidget. My ViewWidget contains a QVTKWidget and a QMenuBar in a box layout (top to bottom). The QMenuBar is created an added. Then the QVTKWidget is created and added.

QVBoxLayout* qbv = new QVBoxLayout();
qbv->setDirection(QBoxLayout::TopToBottom);
qbv->setContentsMargins(1, 1, 1, 1);
setLayout(qbv);
menuBar = new QMenuBar();
menuBar->setPalette(QPalette(QPalette::Background, Qt::white));
qbv->addWidget(menuBar);
qvtk = new QVTKWidget();
qbv->addWidget(qvtk);
