I'm trying to work around a problem on Macintosh where Qt 5.6 leaves the menu bar and menu items in a disabled state (Qt mistakenly believes a modal window exists, apparently).
I'd like to try calling QCocoaMenuBar::updateMenuBarImmediately() in the Qt library, implemented here: /qtbuild5/qt/qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/cocoa/qcocoamenubar.mm: void QCocoaMenuBar::updateMenuBarImmediately() { ... Not sure if/how the QPlatform API can be used from application code to call QCocoaMenuBar::updateMenuBarImmediately. I also seem to remember stumbling upon source that used QCocoaNativeInterface to call platform code from application source: .../qt/qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/cocoa/qcocoanativeinterface.mm: void QCocoaNativeInterface::onAppFocusWindowChanged(QWindow *window) { Q_UNUSED(window); QCocoaMenuBar::updateMenuBarImmediately(); } Or would we need to patch Qt to add onAppFocusWindowChanged to QCocoaNativeInterface::platformFunction? QFunctionPointer QCocoaNativeInterface::platformFunction(const QByteArray &function) const { if (function == QCocoaWindowFunctions::bottomLeftClippedByNSWindowOffsetIdentifier()) return QFunctionPointer(QCocoaWindowFunctions::BottomLeftClippedByNSWindowOffset(QCocoaWindow::bottomLeftClippedByNSWindowOffsetStatic)); return Q_NULLPTR; } Any pointers on how to either call updateMenuBarImmediately or use the QPlatform API from application code would be appreciated. --Jim =============================================== Jim Prouty Voice: (503) 620-3001, FAX: (503) 620-6754 Makers of IGOR Pro, scientific data analysis and graphing for Mac and PC http://www.wavemetrics.com _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
