How to ignore click that closes/hides the contextual menu ?
-
Hello,
I am facing a problem where an event is processed when I left click to exit from the contextual menu.
- Right click -> Contextual menu appears
- Left click anywhere but on any contextual action -> the contextual menu disappears as expected
- That left click is processed as a standard left click and initiate some stuff I don't want, I just wanted to exit from contextual menu.
How can I prevent from that ?
Thank you!

Hi and welcome to devnet,
What does happen ?
On what kind of widget does it happen ?
What OS ?
What Qt version ? -
Win7, Qt 5.9.1
It is a QWidget that handle a plotter paint area where we draw curves.
The left click starts to edit the curve as a normal left click would do but that particular left click was just supposed to close/hide the contextual menu and nothing more. -

an action just as if user clicked directly on it ?Please make a small default GUI project and try it there so we are sure its not
something in your code that does it. :)
