    Default Re: Mouse Over event on button

    You photoRecovery button and createImage button should be created from a class that reimplements the QAbstractButton (or may be QPushButton). Let will be something like

    Qt Code:
    1. class PictureButton : public QAbstractButton
    2. {
    3. public:
    4. //constructors and all other functions that you need.
    5. protected:
    6. void enterEvent(QEvent *event);
    7. void leaveEvent(QEvent *event);
    8. };
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    The implementation of enterEvent and leaveEvent is already given by vfernandez

    Now, you will need to create the buttons in following way

    Qt Code:
    1. PictureButton *photoRecoveryButton = new PictureButton(icon,parent);
    2. PictureButton *createImageButton = new PictureButton(icon,parent);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Hope this helps.

    Question Re: Mouse Over event on button

    Thanks for that.

    But Actually I have created the buttons as

    QGroupBox *groupBox;
    QPushButton *PhotoRecoveryButton;
    QPushButton *CreateImageButton;

    CreateImageButton = new QPushButton(Dialog);
    CreateImageButton->setObjectName(QString::fromUtf8("CreateImageButto n"));
    CreateImageButton->setWindowModality(Qt::NonModal);
    CreateImageButton->setGeometry(QRect(30, 230, 131, 121));
    CreateImageButton->setCursor(QCursor(static_cast<Qt::CursorShape>(13 )));
    CreateImageButton->setMouseTracking(true);
    CreateImageButton->setFocusPolicy(Qt::StrongFocus);
    CreateImageButton->setIcon(QIcon(QString::fromUtf8(":/images/CreateImageLogical.png")));
    CreateImageButton->setIconSize(QSize(128, 128));
    CreateImageButton->setCheckable(true);
    CreateImageButton->setChecked(false);
    CreateImageButton->setAutoDefault(true);
    CreateImageButton->setDefault(true);
    CreateImageButton->setFlat(true);
    QWidget::setTabOrder(CreateImageButton, PhotoRecoveryButton);



    and I have make a SearchScanDiskDlg.h in which I have declare the

    protected:

    void enterEvent(QEvent *event);
    void leaveEvent(QEvent *event);

    and then using these in .cpp file as

    void SearchScanDiskDlg::enterEvent(QEvent *event)
    {

    CreateImageButton->setIcon(QIcon(":/images/CreateImage1.png"));

    }



    void SearchScanDiskDlg::leaveEvent(QEvent *event)

    {

    CreateImageButton->setIcon(QIcon(":/images/CreateImageLogical.png"));

    }



    That is changes the icon on enterEvent and leaveEvent.

    It is changing the Icon only when I click somewhere on the Dialog
    I m sending you the form only to show u how it is looking.

    As the previous posts explain, you have to use the enter/leave events within the Button Class, so you have to create a custom class inheriting from QAbstractButton. What you have done so far, was to implement the enter-, leaveEvents of the dialog class. They have nothing to do with the buttons. If you are reluctant to introducing your own button class, there is a simpler solution that is more than sufficient for this task: Installing an event filter with QObject::installEventFilter() ...

    check the Qt-Docs for this. It's fairly simple.
