Thanks for the reply.  I just realised that the example I sent does
actually work (once I sort out the focus).  After about an hour of testing
I discovered that in my actual scenario I never called widget.addAction().
 I've got quite a bit of abstraction around the QActions and I somehow
missed it!

Thanks for the reply.  I just realised that the example I sent does actually work \
(once I sort out the focus).  After about an hour of testing I discovered that in my \
actual scenario I never called widget.addAction().  I&#39;ve got quite a bit of \
abstraction around the QActions and I somehow missed it!<br>
