ContextMenuItem
One row of a ContextMenu: an icon or symbol, the text and a shortcut hint, optionally checkable or a radio choice.
ContextMenuItem is a row of a ContextMenu. It shows an icon or a symbol, the text and, dimmed on the right, a shortcut hint. A checked checkable row shows a check mark in the icon's place and a row that opens a submenu shows an arrow at the end. A hidden row takes no room.
ContextMenuItem is a Qt Quick Templates MenuItem (Qt documentation); its inherited properties work as usual. With an action (an AtlasAction or a plain Qt Action) the row shows the action's symbol and, when shortcutText is empty, its shortcut.
Example
ButtonGroup { id: sortGroup }
ContextMenuItem { text: qsTr("Name"); radio: true; checked: true; ButtonGroup.group: sortGroup }
ContextMenuItem { text: qsTr("Size"); radio: true; ButtonGroup.group: sortGroup }Properties
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
destructive |
bool |
false |
Draws the row in the error colour (Kill, Delete). |
radio |
bool |
false |
A choice among several: draws a dot instead of the check mark when checked. Implies checkable. |
shortcutText |
string |
"" |
The shortcut hint shown dimmed on the right ("Del"). It only describes and doesn't bind a key. When empty, the action's shortcut is shown. |
showsCheck |
bool (read-only) |
— | True when the row is checkable, checked and not a radio row. |
symbol |
int (a Symbols.<Name> value) |
the action's symbol, else 0 |
A Material Symbol drawn instead of icon.name; see Symbols. |
tint |
color (read-only) |
— | The colour of the row's text and symbol: disabled, error (destructive) or normal. |
Note
Rows of one radio choice must share a Qt group, which makes them exclusive and keeps the checked one from being unchecked by a second click: either an exclusive ActionGroup (the rows' actions) or a ButtonGroup (ButtonGroup.group: group on each row, from QtQuick.Controls).
