QGraphicsItem mouse out of focus

[bunjee]

Hey guys,

I want to emulate a "real button click" on a QGraphicsItem:
The click is triggered when mouse release + cursor inside.

Anyone could fill my blank here:

void qwListGraphicsItem::mouseReleaseEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent * event)
{
    Q_D(qwListGraphicsItem);
 
    if (/* cursor is not over the QGraphicsItem */ == true) return;
 
    // Do something...
}

void qwListGraphicsItem::mouseReleaseEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent * event)
{
    Q_D(qwListGraphicsItem);

    if (/* cursor is not over the QGraphicsItem */ == true) return;

    // Do something...
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Thanks.

What is a "real button click"? You will only get the release event if the cursor hits the shape() of the item. Is that "inside" enough?

If you want your item to be shown as pressed,,, try to set its pos little by some offset while it is pressed.
Also you can change color of the item to give more realistic effect. Hope am getting u right

Solved : QGraphicsItem::isUnderMouse()

void qwListGraphicsItem::mouseReleaseEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent * event)
{
    Q_D(qwListGraphicsItem);
 
    if (isUnderMouse() == false) return;
 
    // Do something...
}

void qwListGraphicsItem::mouseReleaseEvent(QGraphicsSceneMouseEvent * event)
{
    Q_D(qwListGraphicsItem);
 
    if (isUnderMouse() == false) return;
 
    // Do something...
}
