    Hello, I have 10 QLabels and I want to write context menus for them. But I found out that I need to write 10 connect functions. Is there a way to combine them so that I could write less?

      Hi,

      Make a vector of these labels and use a for loop with the connect statement in it.

          @SGaist said in How to use one function to connect 10 QLabels?:

          Make a vector of these labels and use a for loop with the connect statement in it.

          You can even create it on the fly:

          for(QLabel* singleLabel : {label1,label2,label3,label4}){
              QObject::connect(singleLabel,&QLabel::customContextMenuRequested,/*etc*/);
          }
