I have a class derived from QFrame inside which I have an object of a class derived from QWidget.
Qt Code: 
  1. ______________________________________________________
  2. |    myFrameClass : public QFrame
  3. |    {
  4. |              Context Menu on RightClick defined here;
  5. |              myWidgetClass->setParent(this);
  6. |     }
  7. |     ______________________________________
  8. |    |    myWidgetClass : public QWidget                |
  9. |    |    {                                                             |
  10. |    |        mousePressEvent( QMouseEvent e)        |
  11. |    |        {                                                         |
  12. |    |                e->ignore();                                |
  13. |    |        }                                                         |
  14. |    |    }                                                             |
  15. |    |______________________________________|
  16. |___________________________________________________

I have defined a context-menu to appear when I right-click on myFrameClass. And I have explicitly overridden the mousePressEvent inside myWidgetClass. In spite of this, when I right-click on myWidgetClass, the context-menu of myFrameClass pops up . I dont understand, why, if I have overridden to ignore the mousePressEvent, should the mousePressEvent go to the parent (myFrameClass)?

Any pointers would be appreciated!
Tnx in adv!
