Hi, I'm trying to override QWidget.show() and call it as a slot, but it doesn't seem to receive the signal. Specifically, I subclass QMdiSubWindow (called MySubWindow) and try to override show(). I instantiate this subclass as self.window in an instance of MyClass, and then create a QAction called self.menuEntry and call
self.menuEntry.triggered.connect(self.window.show) When self.menuEntry is triggered, it turns out that QMdiSubWindow.show() is called, not MySubWindow.show(). If instead of overriding show() I just create a new method, say MySubWindow.showa(), and connect as self.menuEntry.triggered.connect(self.window.showa) then MySubWindow.showa() is called perfectly. Also, if I create a method MyClass.doShow(), which calls self.window.show(), and connect as self.menuEntry.triggered.connect(self.show) then MySubWindow.show() is called perfectly. Does anyone know why this might be happening? This code was working fine when I was using PyQt with new-style signals and slots, but maybe there is a subtlety that I'm not aware of. If needed, I can provide a script that shows this. Thanks! Ben
