Adding events to GraphicsView

[mkarakaplan]

Hi all,
I work with qtdesigner. I created windows with a graphicsview. I could add graphic items to scene. Now i want to add mouse release event to this graphicsview.

void MainWindow::mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent *event)
{
printf("Mouse released\n");
QGraphicsView::mouseReleaseEvent(event);
}

But it doesnt work. How can i do that in simple way.

No.
Subclass QGraphicsView and override the necessary funtions there.
Note that you can also subclass the items themselves and react fro mouse actions already there

I need a simple example.

Yeah, of course, but before could you please

• Use the [ CODE ] tags that your example code is shown probably
• Use the Newbie forum for questions that sort of
• Tell us what you want to achieve once you get the release event, because I guess you don't need all this...

QWidget is an ancestor of graphics view. So you get mouseReleaseEvent in graphics view. You just need to override the function QAbstractScrollArea::mouseReleaseEvent

You derive from QGraphicsView, but the constructor takes another QGraphicsView, and your scene is using that view....
