I have a custom implementation of QChartView where I can zoom. (Class "ChartView" from this example) In there I have a mousePressEvent.
Now I wanted to add a QScatterSeries and connect the clicked signal with a custom slot. Unfortunately as soon as I click on my QScatterSeries only a signal is emitted to my ChartView mousePressEvent slot and not to my QScatterSeries mypoint_clicked slot.
I also added an QScatterSeries hovered signal which works fine.
connect(myScatterSeries, SIGNAL(hovered(QPointF,bool)), this, SLOT(mypoint_hovered(QPointF,bool)));
connect(myScatterSeries, SIGNAL(clicked(QPointF)), this, SLOT(mypoint_clicked(QPointF)));
Just guessing here.
mousePressEvent()
is not a slot, but an event handler. I guess that QChartView::mousePressEvent()
is somewhat responsible for handling mouse press events on the chart and dispatching them to series.
If you reimplemented ChartView::mousePressEvent()
without explicitly calling QChartView::mousePressEvent()
to forward the event, you might prevent the normal event processing to dispatch the event to the series. And therefore QScatterSeries::clicked()
is never emitted.
