I'm trying to get a QTreeWidget into the submenu of a context menu. (This is to allow users to selected alternate versions of the thing they're right clicking on).

I created a custom QWidgetAction but for some reason the widget doesnt disappear when the action is triggered. Any ideas on why this isnt working??

Qt Code: 
  1. class QdVersionListAction(QtGui.QWidgetAction):
  2.     def __init__(self, path, parent=None):
  3.         QtGui.QWidgetAction.__init__(self, parent)
  4.         self.path = path
  5.         self.new_version = ""
  6.  
  7.     def createWidget(self, parent):
  8.         widget = QdVersionTree(self.path, parent)
  9.         widget.setMinimumSize(450, 100)
  10.         self.connect(widget, SIGNAL("versionSelected(QString)"), self.versionAccepted)
  11.         self.activate(QtGui.QAction.Trigger)
  12.         return widget
  13.  
  14.     def versionAccepted(self, path):
  15.         self.new_version = path
  16.         # this works, the triggered signal is emitted and all
  17.         self.activate(QtGui.QAction.Trigger)
  18.  
  19.         # What else can I do here????
  20.         self.emit(SIGNAL("changed()"))
  21.         self.toggle()
  22.         print 'version accepted', path
  23.  
  24. class QdVersionTree(QtGui.QTreeWidget):
  25.     def __init__(self, path, parent=None):
  26.         QtGui.QTreeWidget.__init__(self, parent)
  27.         self.setAllColumnsShowFocus(True)
  28.  
  29.         attributes = ["version", "name", "creator", "description"]
  30.         self.setHeaderLabels(atributes)
  31.         self.setFrameStyle(QtGui.QFrame.NoFrame)
  32.  
  33.         versions = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
  34.         for version in versions:
  35.             columns = []
  36.             for attribute in attributes:
  37.                 columns.append(attribute)
  38.  
  39.             item = QdVersionTreeItem(self, columns)
  40.             self.addTopLevelItem(item)
  41.  
  42.         self.connect(self, SIGNAL("itemActivated(QTreeWidgetItem *, int)"),
  43.                      self.itemActivated)
  44.  
  45.     def itemActivated(self, item, column):
  46.         self.emit(SIGNAL("versionSelected(QString)"), "foo")
