Does anybody know, why Actions only work, when they have been added to a menu or toolbar in the first place? The same applies to QWhatsThis stuff. pressing Shift+F1 won't work until I have added a QWhatsThis action to the menu ... This may not be a problem in a QMainWindow where toolbars and menus are available most of the times, but it is a problem in dialogs ...

This way I neither have the opportunity to have Shortcuts (except accelarators ...) to some actions nor, QWhatsThis popups if I don't have a menu or toolbar.

Thanx in advance
