I meant a menu instead of tooltip. Sorry for any confusion there.
As for how to use it, this is unknown territory for me since i never used
the platform components. I'm guessing you use them since you talk about a
Menu which is part of QtQuick.Controls.
What you "probably" want is setting a different style for the menu
container which can be done with the MenuStyle {} component [1].
Here you "probably" want to modify the styleData.type: MenuItemType.Menu.
It would look somewhat like this:
MenuStyle {
id: yourStyle
styleData.type: MenuItemType.Menu
frame: Window { ... }
}
Menu {
style: yourStyle
}
This is a complete guess. I don't know if this would work for you. Others
can probably help you with more specific examples.
