@Bonnie That could be a way, but this breaks with the OS style and I knew that some of our users will claim that this looks ugly. Then I have to search for a new idea representing the information in tray's menu.

@jsulm said in QActionWidget & QToolBar - no actionTriggered signal...:

@Dariusz Maybe I'm blind but I can't find an addAction() overload with a QAction parameter. All I can see is:

addAction(const QString &) : QAction * addAction(const QIcon &, const QString &) : QAction * addAction(const QString &, const QObject *, const char *) : QAction * addAction(const QIcon &, const QString &, const QObject *, const char *) : QAction * addAction(const QString &, Functor ) : QAction * addAction(const QString &, const QObject *, Functor ) : QAction * addAction(const QIcon &, const QString &, Functor ) : QAction * addAction(const QIcon &, const QString &, const QObject *, Functor ) : QAction * addActions(QList<QAction *> )

Edit I just noticed I messed up title... corrected to QWidgetAction sorry!

QObject are not copiable, see here for the why.

I helped myself to set a minimum size ->setMinimumSize(300)
I also had to problem that at first pop up, my text was cut off. Nothing of the workarrounds mentioned here helped.

@SGaist Thanks. That's definitely another option. I suppose these approaches are as good as it gets for having a toolbar item auto-adjust to horizontal vs. vertical. Thanks again.

Sorry, I've haven't given enough info: it's working on 10.8.5 with a Qt 5.6 build
