Re: [Maya-Python] Re: PYQT “pop up menu”
When we use a qt popupMenu to reproduce the maya native contextual menu,
one of the things we noticed and did not like was that maya indicates that
there is a contextual menu by changing the icon when you hover a widget.
if you want to adhere to maya style and reproduce this, you have to use
this code snippet:
yourWidget.setCursor(QtGui.QCursor(':/rmbMenu.png', hotX=6, hotY=4))
Here, hotX and hotY are values we found that did not offset the cursor
position.

The CustomContextMenu approach requires 2 thing:
1) widget.setContextMenuPolicy(QtCore.Qt.CustomContextMenu)
2) widget.customContextMenuRequested.connect(self.handleMenu)
The first one sets the mode for the way the widget handles context menus to
fire the customContextMenuRequested signal when you right click the widget.
The second one connects that customContextMenuRequested signal to a custom
function, in this case called handleMenu().
For the handler function, Qt will pass you the widget local position if you
want it. Otherwise you can have it accept no arguments and pass a position
directly:
```python
class MyWidget(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(MyWidget, self).__init__()
self.resize(600,400)
self.setContextMenuPolicy(QtCore.Qt.CustomContextMenu)
self.customContextMenuRequested.connect(self._showMenu)
def _showMenu(self):
m = QtGui.QMenu()
m.addAction("test")
m.exec_(QtGui.QCursor.pos())
```
Also, I want to point out one "gotcha" about the example given by Wexler.
When you do something like this:
menu = QMenu(self)
...
menu.exec_()
You are most likely leaking a QMenu instance every time. This is because
the menu has been parented to the widget and once you close the menu, the
instance hangs around. You can either call menu.deleteLater() after the
exec returns, or you can just avoid parenting it to the widget.

Re: [Maya-Python] Re: PYQT “pop up menu”
Errors? Get any?
The btn creation can be anywhere in the window/dialog class.
Than you connect its context to the add_menu def' that execute as you press
right click.

I am starting to get a little confused with both replies I was able to capture
to left click using self.my_btn.clicked.connect(partial(self.call_def_left))
but unable to show the CustomContextMenu with the right click.
could you please simplify this for me ?

Re: [Maya-Python] Re: PYQT “pop up menu”
I think Wexler has basically what you need there.
All the self.my_btn stuff should be in a function, probably in __init__ for
a simple case.
You might also need
self.my_btn.setContextMenuPolicy(QtCore.Qt.CustomContextMenu)
and the connections don't need to use a partial function as long as you accept
the correct arguments in your connected functions.

Re: [Maya-Python] Re: PYQT “pop up menu”
Here is an example that *might* put you in the right track.. please
note, I did not test this snippet
from functools import partial
class MyUI(window or dialog or widget or whatever...):
# create a button
self.my_btn = QtWidgets.QPushButton('Right Click Me')
# left click
self.my_btn.clicked.connect(partial(self.call_def_left))
# set it with custom menu Contex
self.my_btn.customContextMenuRequested.connect(partial(self.add_menu))
# menu thingy, this is the right click
def add_menu(self):
""" add menus to btns """
menu = QtWidgets.QMenu(self)
for char_env in [('Char Yes', QtGui.QPixmap('img_char_location')),
('Env Yes', QtGui.QPixmap('img_env_location'))
]:
action = QtWidgets.QAction(char_env[1], char_env[0], self,
triggered=partial(self.call_def_YES))
# add the action to the menu
menu.addAction(action)
# exec' the menu on the position of the cursor
menu.exec_(QtGui.QCursor.pos())

Re: [Maya-Python] Re: PYQT “pop up menu”
I’m looking to create a menu that is shown when you preform a right click on a button. The photo was an example for the maya.cmds.popupMenu() that I want to repeat using QT Instead.
