In Qt 4 the easiest way to get a context menu is _not_ to reimplement the context menu event, but instead to (1) Set the context menu policy on the widget you are interested in, i.e. QWidget.setContextMenuPolicy(Qt.ActionsContextMenu), then (2) Add the actions you want to appear in the menu to the widget with QWidget.addAction(action1), etc. So for your particular example, do this both to your QTableView, and to the widget you get from QTableView.horizontalHeader(). I haven't tried this with a horizontalHeader() myself though. -- Mark Summerfield, Qtrac Ltd., www.qtrac.eu _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list PyKDE@mats.imk.fraunhofer.de http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
