QGraphicsItem doesn't receive mouse hover events
- by Jen
I have a class derived from QGraphicsView, which contains QGraphicsItem-derived elements. I want these elements to change color whenever the mouse cursor hovers over them, so I implemented hoverEnterEvent (and hoverLeaveEvent):
void MyGraphicsItem::hoverEnterEvent(QGraphicsSceneHoverEvent* event)
{
update (boundingRect());
}
However, this event handler code is never executed. I've explicitly enabled mouse tracking:
MyGraphicsView::MyGraphicsView(MainView *parent) :
QGraphicsView(parent)
{
setMouseTracking(true);
viewport()->setMouseTracking(true);
...
}
Still, no luck. What am I doing wrong?
