Adding actions to a context menu

[aarelovich]

Hi:

Sorry to bother again, but I did found a solution. I reimplemented the contextMenuEvent with this code:

void CodeEditor::contextMenuEvent(QContextMenuEvent *event){
     QMenu *menu = this->createStandardContextMenu();     
     menu->addAction(action_comment);
     menu->addAction(action_uncomment);
     menu->insertSeparator(action_comment);
     menu->exec(event->globalPos());
 }

void CodeEditor::contextMenuEvent(QContextMenuEvent *event){
     QMenu *menu = this->createStandardContextMenu();     
     menu->addAction(action_comment);
     menu->addAction(action_uncomment);
     menu->insertSeparator(action_comment);
     menu->exec(event->globalPos());
 }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

action_comment/uncomment were two private objects which are created and connected in the constructor to their respective code.

I'm posting it in case it helps anyone.

you could also use QWidget::customContextMenuRequested and QWdiget::setContextMenuPolicy with Qt::CustomContextMenu.

I hope I have helped!
