In the above code whenever i right click on the QTreeWidgetItem it will show me the contextmenu having a single menuitem named Remove . What i want is whenever the user click on that remove menuitem at that time only it should remove that QTreeWidgetItem from the qtreewidget . but in the above code after rigtclick even if i click on any part of the UI it removes the respective QTreeWidgetItem from the treewidget , which i want to avoid .

Thankss in advance .

It doesn't look like you're determining which menu item was selected. Try something like this:

QAction *selectedAction = menu->exec(ui.UserSpecificMaterial_treeWidget->viewPort()->mapToGlobal(pos));
if (selectedAction == myAction)
{
  /*** code to remove the item ***/
}

QAction *selectedAction = menu->exec(ui.UserSpecificMaterial_treeWidget->viewPort()->mapToGlobal(pos));
if (selectedAction == myAction)
{
  /*** code to remove the item ***/
}
