According to the docs, QGraphicsSceneEvent::widget() returns a QWidget. Isn't the widget always going to be a QGraphicsView, though (or null)?
I would assume so, except then I don't understand why the devs wouldn't have just made it QGraphicsSceneEvent::view().
The reason I'm asking is that in my subclassed QGraphicsScene, I have overridden QGraphicsScene::mousePressEvent() and I want to know which view originated the event--I'm wondering if it's safe to static cast widget() to a QGraphicsView, or if it's conceivable that some other widget could have created the event.
As it turns out, QGraphicsSceneEvent::widget() returns the viewport widget, not the QGraphicsView. If you want the QGraphicsView, you would need to use: event->widget()->parent().
