I.e. why is "clicked" a signal and "mousePressEvent" an overrided virtual. Why can't they both be signals, in which case the problem I describe wouldn't happen?

</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br>I realized that the wording above is both unfortunate and wrong. I understand that there is a need for virtual functions, and Gtk indeed provides them as well. But what is less clear to me is why there is a distinction between "clicked" and "mousePressEvent", and why they are implemented differently? Anyhow, that has nothing to do with the Py part of PyQt which simply reflects the underlying API.<br>
