    Default Re: Tooltip of widget not visible in QGraphicsProxyWidget

    That might be better for the long run if that is possible.

    Embedding widgets into a graphics scene can get ugly, as things like events need to be mapped back and forth between two very different worlds.

    A custom graphics item is usually more upfront work but you also better control on drawing and user interaction.

    Usually embedding widgets makes only sense if it is one of the standard widgets, e.g. QComboBox, which are quite complicated to replicated visually and behavioralwise.

    Cheers,
