[SailfishDevel] ContextMenu inside a PullDownMenu

[Martin Jones]

Hi,

This will not work and I can’t imagine this case being made to work in the future. The pulley menus are designed to be pulled down to highlight an option and released to select. A ContextMenu/ComboBox inside a pulley menu is incompatible with the interaction design of the pulley menu.

Perhaps you could explain the use case you’re trying to accomplish and we could suggest an alternative, or pass some feedback on to our designers.

Best Regards,
Martin.

Hi,

I’m hoping I’m not the only one who’s been trying something like this and even more so I hope there’s a solution for it:

I’ve been trying to get a ContextMenu inside the PullDownMenu with code like this:
PullDownMenu {
            MenuItem {
                ComboBox {
                    width: page.width
                    label: "Kampus: "

                    menu: ContextMenu {
                        id: menu
                        Repeater {
                            model: ["Kaikki", "Otaniemi", "Töölö", "Arabia",
                                "Kumpula", "Keskusta", "Kallio", "Viikki"]
                            MenuItem {
                                text: modelData
                                onClicked: { kampus = modelData }
                            }
                        }
                    }
            }
}
Buut, it doesn’t do anything when selected, another thing I did was try to replace the MenuItem with the ComboBox straight, but of course that didn’t do squat. I’ve also tried to insert the ContextMenu straight to the MenuItem buuut that keeps telling me I can’t (surprise).

So, any pointers/tips/solutions?
