How do I obtain mouse hover/popup functionality in a Qtableview?

[georgep]

In the paint implementation :

void BoxDelegate::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const

void BoxDelegate::paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

using qdebug()<<option.state; i am able to "see" a QStyle::State_MouseOver State, but in the

bool BoxDelegate::editorEvent ( QEvent * event, QAbstractItemModel * model, const QStyleOptionViewItem & option, const QModelIndex & index )

bool BoxDelegate::editorEvent ( QEvent * event, QAbstractItemModel * model, const QStyleOptionViewItem & option, const QModelIndex & index )

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

implementation, i dont.. why is this?
