    Reimp the handlers QWidget::enterEvent() and QWidget::leaveEvent(). Open and close the pop up there.

    Thanks for your advice.

    Can you post the codes up if possible?
    Thanks again.

    You should make a new class inheriting from QLabel class.
    In the new class, put the declaration of Widget events under the "signals:".
    Then, connect the signals to your slots.
    For example:

    class myClass : public QLabel
    ...
    signals:
    void mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent *);
    ...
    public slots:
    void mySlot();

    in the constructor:
    connect(this, SIGNAL(mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent*)), this, SLOT(mySlot()));

    That is totally wrong. You have to overload the mouseReleaseEvent. Not connect it to a slot.
