Synopsis

Detailed Description

Context menu events are sent to widgets when a user performs an action associated with opening a context menu. The actions required to open context menus vary between platforms; for example, on Windows, pressing the menu button or clicking the right mouse button will cause this event to be sent.

When this event occurs it is customary to show a QMenu with a context menu, if this is relevant to the context.

Context menu events contain a special accept flag that indicates whether the receiver accepted the event. If the event handler does not accept the event then, if possible, whatever triggered the event will be handled as a regular input event.

PySide2.QtGui.QContextMenuEvent(reason, pos, globalPos)

PySide2.QtGui.QContextMenuEvent(reason, pos, globalPos, modifiers)

param globalPos:

PySide2.QtCore.QPoint

param modifiers:

KeyboardModifiers

param reason:

Reason

param pos:

PySide2.QtCore.QPoint

Constructs a context menu event object with the accept parameter flag set to false.

The reason parameter must be Mouse or Keyboard .

The pos parameter specifies the mouse position relative to the receiving widget.

The globalPos() is initialized to pos() , which may not be appropriate. Use the other constructor to specify the global position explicitly.

Constructs a context menu event object with the accept parameter flag set to false.

The reason parameter must be Mouse or Keyboard .

The pos parameter specifies the mouse position relative to the receiving widget. globalPos is the mouse position in absolute coordinates.

Constructs a context menu event object with the accept parameter flag set to false.

The reason parameter must be Mouse or Keyboard .

The pos parameter specifies the mouse position relative to the receiving widget. globalPos is the mouse position in absolute coordinates. The modifiers holds the keyboard modifiers.
