how to catch qMouseEvent

[pakine]

Hi, i'm a newbie in QT, and i'm working in a proyect with it. now i need to get a simple MouseEvent but i don't get it.
There is a class called ListaMensajes where QScrollArea is placed. Inside i can load PanelTx objects.
The idea is to select the PanelTx object by clicking over each one.

protected:
	void clickPanelTxEvent(QMouseEvent *e);
 
private:
	Ui::PanelTxClass ui;

protected:
	void clickPanelTxEvent(QMouseEvent *e);

private:
	Ui::PanelTxClass ui;

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and the definition ..

PanelTx::PanelTx (CArincMsgData *msg, ListaMensajes &listaMensajes, QWidget *parent)
: QWidget(parent), m_cListaMensajes (listaMensajes), m_pMessage (msg)
{
	ui.setupUi(this);
 
	m_pDialogPropiedades = 0;
 
	loadValues ();
 
	colorPanelTx(m_pMessage->isEnabledTx ()); //poner color activo-desactivo
}
 
PanelTx::~PanelTx()
{
 
}
.............
 
void PanelTx::clickPanelTxEvent(QMouseEvent *e)
{
 
		if (e->button() == Qt::LeftButton)
		{
 
			//this line is just to check it works
	                this->setPalette(QPalette(Qt::white));
 
		}
		else if (e->button() == Qt::RightButton)
		{
			......
		}
}

PanelTx::PanelTx (CArincMsgData *msg, ListaMensajes &listaMensajes, QWidget *parent)
: QWidget(parent), m_cListaMensajes (listaMensajes), m_pMessage (msg)
{
	ui.setupUi(this);

	m_pDialogPropiedades = 0;

	loadValues ();

	colorPanelTx(m_pMessage->isEnabledTx ()); //poner color activo-desactivo
}

PanelTx::~PanelTx()
{

}
.............

void PanelTx::clickPanelTxEvent(QMouseEvent *e)
{
	
		if (e->button() == Qt::LeftButton)
		{
			
			//this line is just to check it works
	                this->setPalette(QPalette(Qt::white));
	
		}
		else if (e->button() == Qt::RightButton)
		{
			......
		}
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

the line:
this->setPalette(QPalette(Qt::white));
works perfectly with this widget cause im using it in other parts, but i can't get the handler work for the QMouseEvents

could anybody help me?
thanks

Are you familiar with c++ and object oriented programming?

You should re-implement the mouse events.

Example:

void MyClass::mousePressEvent ( QMouseEvent * event )
{
    //Do something with the event, accept it, and/or pass it to qwidget
}

void MyClass::mousePressEvent ( QMouseEvent * event )
{
    //Do something with the event, accept it, and/or pass it to qwidget
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

thanks for the inconveniences, i have solved it with a eventFilter. I just wanted to manage the click over some panels, and finally i got it.
i have begun 2 weeks ago with c++ and this project, but is still going on.
thanks anyway

how mousePressEvent () will get called ????
shall i have to call it manually ??

Nope....

include QMouseEvent header file.

Then, override virtual function i.e.;

void mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *);

void mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Then after that, define it in your cpp file. you dont have to call the function as it will call automatically.
Use documentation.
