QAction with QPushButton

[anda_skoa]

It seems that QToolButtons were meant to be inside a QToolBar, so that's why I brought that up.

Yes, you brought that up to rant instead of trying a suggested solution. Well done!

But essentially, I would like to avoid using any kind of button all together and just use QActions inside a QMenuBar.

Very nice!
Ranting about a proposed solution without even trying, trying something totally unrelated instead and ranting about that and all based on a question you didn't even want an answer for.

Definitely the way forward!
