QGraphicsLineItem + setAcceptHoverEvents

[NoRulez]

Hey @all,

i'm trying to get the hover effect working for my QGraphicsLineItem object.
I have subclassed the QGraphicsLineItem class, and in the constructor i wrote:

setAcceptHoverEvents(true);

setAcceptHoverEvents(true);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I implemented the protected functions like below:

void Arrow::hoverEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event) {
    //QGraphicsLineItem::hoverEnterEvent(event);
    qDebug() << "void Arrow::hoverEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event)";
    pen().setColor(QColor(204, 0, 255, 76));
}
 
void Arrow::hoverLeaveEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event) {
    qDebug() << "void Arrow::hoverLeaveEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event)";
    pen().setColor(myColor);
}

void Arrow::hoverEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event) {
    //QGraphicsLineItem::hoverEnterEvent(event);
    qDebug() << "void Arrow::hoverEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event)";
    pen().setColor(QColor(204, 0, 255, 76));
}

void Arrow::hoverLeaveEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event) {
    qDebug() << "void Arrow::hoverLeaveEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent * event)";
    pen().setColor(myColor);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But when i come over the line with my mouse pointer the functions doesn't be executed?

What i'am doing wrong? Can anybody help me.

Works for me. Just notice that you can't alter the pen like that (you're modifying a copy of the pen so the original pen doesn't change):

// pen().setColor(myColor); // <-- wrong
setPen(QPen(myColor)); // do something like this instead
// or
QPen p = pen();
p.setColor(myColor);
setPen(p);

// pen().setColor(myColor); // <-- wrong
setPen(QPen(myColor)); // do something like this instead
// or
QPen p = pen();
p.setColor(myColor);
setPen(p);
