Hello again,</div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
For anyone looking at this thread, the problem is that the widgets added to the <i>
QWidgetAction</i> with <i>.setDefaultWidget<b> consume </b></i>the <i>mouseMoveEvent</i>, which needs to be ignored.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
The solution is to enable mouse tracking on all widgets in the added to the <i>QWidgetAction
</i>with<i> .setMouseTracking(True)</i> and then overriding the <i>mouseMoveEvent
</i>method and ignoring the event in every widget, like so:</div>
<blockquote style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<i><span style="font-size: 10pt;">def mouseMoveEvent(self, event):</span><br>
</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<i><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> event.ignore()</span></i></div>
</blockquote>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
Thanks for the hints</div>

<div>Uhm. I see a QComboBox that shows what appears to be a QMenu instead of the standard popup, so, yes, that could be the issue, especially if you're overriding the popup behavior on mouse press.</div>
<div>I suggest you to share a minimal reproducible example so that we could better understand what's going on.</div>
