Make Qt menu appear programmatically

I have a QMenu in a QMenuBar.

I can make the QMenu appear via QMenu.show() QMenu.exec() and QMenu.showTearOffMenu(), but these show the menu at the top-left of the screen, at a prespecified position, or under the mouse. I want the menu to appear in its usual position (under the QMenuBar). Is this possible (in any Qt language)?

You could simply use

your_menuBar.addMenu(your_menu
self.setMenuBar(your_menuBar)

where self will correspond to QMainWindow

Refer setMenuBar

Sets the menu bar for the main window to menuBar.

In Qt, you can use the position of your menu bar and then to open the menu on that position:

poMenu->exec(mapToGlobal(m_poMenuBar->rect().bottomLeft()));
