Status tips of context-menu QActions not shown in statusbar

QActions with status tips set should display a status tip in the status bar any time a QAction is used. This means not only in menubars but in context menus as well. Currently status tips will only work in a context menu when a QAction is parented to the main window and even then Bug #225198 occurs. Support for using QAction::statusTip should be more universal, and not just with a MenuBar's menu.

Example:

#include <QtGui>

class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
MainWindow(QWidget *parent = 0)
: QMainWindow(parent)

{ setStatusBar(new QStatusBar); QAction *act1 = new QAction("Act 1", 0); act1->setStatusTip("This is Action 1"); QAction *act2 = new QAction("Act 2", 0); act2->setStatusTip("This is Action 2"); QAction *act3 = new QAction("Act 3", 0); act3->setStatusTip("This is Action 3"); QMenu *menuBarMenu = menuBar()->addMenu("Menu Bar Menu"); menuBarMenu->addAction(act1); menuBarMenu->addAction(act2); menuBarMenu->addAction(act3); contextMenu = new QMenu("Context Menu", this); contextMenu->addAction(act1); contextMenu->addAction(act2); contextMenu->addAction(act3); contextMenu->setMouseTracking(true); setContextMenuPolicy(Qt::CustomContextMenu); connect(this, SIGNAL(customContextMenuRequested(QPoint)), this, SLOT(showContextMenu(QPoint))); }

private slots:
void showContextMenu(const QPoint &pos)

{ contextMenu->exec(mapToGlobal(pos)); }

private:
QMenu *contextMenu;
};

#include "main.moc"

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
MainWindow mw;
mw.show();
return a.exec();
}
