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.

class Reason

This enum describes the reason why the event was sent.

Constant	Description
QContextMenuEvent.Mouse	The mouse caused the event to be sent. Normally this means the right mouse button was clicked, but this is platform dependent.
QContextMenuEvent.Keyboard	The keyboard caused this event to be sent. On Windows, this means the menu button was pressed.
QContextMenuEvent.Other	The event was sent by some other means (i.e. not by the mouse or keyboard).

__init__(arg__1)

Parameters:

arg__1 – QContextMenuEvent

__init__(reason, pos)

Parameters:

• reason – Reason

• pos – QPoint

Note

This function is deprecated.

Use the other constructor instead (global position is required).

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.

__init__(reason, pos, globalPos[, modifiers=Qt.NoModifier])

Parameters:

• reason – Reason

• pos – QPoint

• globalPos – QPoint

• modifiers – Combination of KeyboardModifier

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.
