Hi all,
What's the best way to connect an action group triggered signal? The
following isn't working:
self.connect(self.theActGroup, QtCore.SIGNAL("triggered(action)"),
self.foo)
I'm adding a QToolButton with mutually exclusive actions to a
QToolBar. I must be missing something obvious, since the method I
connect to the triggered signal is not executing. eg:
self.theButton = QtGui.QToolButton()
self.theButton.setPopupMode(QtGui.QToolButton.MenuButtonPopup)
self.theActGroup = QtGui.QActionGroup(self.theButton)
self.theActGroup.setExclusive(True)
# actions added here...
self.connect(self.theActGroup, QtCore.SIGNAL("triggered(action)"),
self.foo)
# self.foo() not executed
See attached file for simple, working example.
Thanks!
Scott
