    Default How to insert a widget into QMenu?

    Hi,

    how is it possible to implement a more complex menu where a menu would contain other widgets? Is it possible to put any widget in the QMenu? For example, in the attached picture there is a whole color palette inserted in the menu. How to do things like that? In general case I would like to know how to insert a layout with other widgets into the QMenu.

    Thanks for any hints!!!

    QMenu is itself derived from QWidget.

    Why dont u subclass QMenu and add ur own layout and widgets u want ?
