Hey guys,
thanks Ant. I tried it briefly yesterday, but had no success. I am adding 2 menu
entries my self. I thought I could assign the shortcut while adding, but that
did not work as well. That's why I looked into assigning it afterwards. I do the
following to add the menu:
m = hiero.ui.menuBar()
myMenu = m.addMenu( 'SuperMenu' )
def doMyThing():
execfile( 'some.py' )
myAction = QAction ( 'my entry', None )
hiero.ui.registerAction ( myAction )
myMenu.addAction( myAction )
myAction.triggered.connect( doMyThing )
Thanks,
Joerg
