    Description

      Qt 5.10 introduced Qt::AA_DontShowShortcutsInContextMenus attribute to allow hiding shortcuts in context menus. The previous behavior (showing shortcuts) is set as default (attribute set to false).

      Unfortuanely it is broken (at least on Windows) and shortcuts don't show up at all no matter if the attribute is set to true or false. 

       

      Sample code:

      #include <QApplication>
#include <QWidget>
#include <QAction>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);

    QWidget w;
    w.setContextMenuPolicy(Qt::ActionsContextMenu);

    QAction act("Copy", nullptr);
    act.setShortcut(QKeySequence::Copy);
    w.addAction(&act);

    w.show();

    return a.exec();
}
