Hey,
so i have solved the problem,
one more line edit was getting created on the top of existing one,
I want to ask can we change the order of contextMenu? my QAction is getting
created on bottom, i want to keep it on top.
and i had one more question is i want to create context menu on leftClick
on pushButton, same as menuButton in menu bar but on QPushButton. how can
we do that?
