Ah, thanks.
one issue I see the Qt.Tool flag is that it won't close the widget when
I click outside of it, something the Qt.Popup flag does for me.
But I guess I can re-implement one of the event handles to reproduce
this behaviour. MIght be easier than hunting down whatever would
suppress the shadow in the default palette.

Hey Frank,
Checkout this page: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qt.html
Here is the description for those two flags:
Qt::Popup 0x00000008 | Window Indicates that the widget is a pop-up
top-level window, i.e. that it is modal, but has a window system frame
appropriate for pop-up menus.
Qt::Tool 0x0000000a | Window Indicates that the widget is a tool
window. A tool window is often a small window with a smaller than
usual title bar and decoration, typically used for collections of tool
buttons. If there is a parent, the tool window will always be kept on
top of it. If there isn't a parent, you may consider using
Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint as well. If the window system supports it, a
tool window can be decorated with a somewhat lighter frame. It can
also be combined with Qt::FramelessWindowHint.
Glad it helped!
Best,

Great, that did in deed fix it, thanks so much!!
Can somebody explain what those two flags actually try to do? I'm
still finding it difficult to find comprehensive documentation
about flags in general.

Hey Frank,
I'm pretty sure we use the QtCore.Qt.Tool flag rather than the
QtCore.Qt.Popup flag to deal with removing the shadow. If that
doesn't work I can look deeper into how we've dealt with this.

Hi all,
I was given some code that uses a QWidget, makes it completely
transparent, then adds a custom paintEvent to draw some
custom items.
This is meant or a fancy right click menu. Under OSX it ll
looks swell,
but under windows I get the default drop shadow, because of the
QtCore.Qt.Popup flag.
e.g.:
class MyMenu(PySide.QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
QtGui.QWidget.__init__(self)
self.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.WA_TranslucentBackground, True)
self.setWindowFlags(QtCore.Qt.Popup |
QtCore.Qt.FramelessWindowHint)
w = MyMenu()
w = show()
What is the easiest way to turn off that off (drop shadows for
transparent widgets just look irritating :-D )? I guess I
could inherit
from QMenu instead of QWidget but would expect more work to
get it to
it's current state and am not entirely sure if that would fix
the issue.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
frank
