Changing mouse cursor in a QObject - QGraphicsItem inherited class

Question

I would like to change my mouse cursor when it is in a graphics item (MyCircle inherits from QObject and QGraphicsItem). Had my class inherited from <

Answer 1

QGraphicsItem already has a method for changing the cursor, so you don't need to manually play around with hover events:

QGraphicsItem::setCursor(const QCursor &cursor)

PS: The dual inheritance of QWidget and QGraphicsItem you do is also a bad idea, only inherit from QGraphicsItem.
