HI,
I have an embedded proxy widget, with a ui form being displayed. I have QlineEdits widgets within this proxy.
I made another widget (nonproxy). This widget is a number pad. When the number buttons are pressed (touchscreen), I want that event to be sent to the currently focused QlineEdit widget (in my proxy). The numpad only pops up when the proxy widget is touched.
I am trying to simulate a keypressevent in my numpad widget, and then send this event to the proxy widget, however seems like the event is not being accepted by the qlineedit widget, I am expecting the number to be displayed but it isn't.
The event key is Qt::Key_1-Key-9. Basically when the graphicsitem is pressed, it emits a signal to this slot, and the data is variant int.
Numpad has no parent widget. If I parent it with the proxy then the numpad operation isn't working (key responses are slow)
Any ideas on how OR why I cannot forward my key inputs to the proxywidget?
Thank you.
This is my event simulation function, is in a subclassed QGraphicsView.
Here is the debug output if it helps.Code:
{ int result = count.value<int>(); qDebug() << widget << &myevent << focusProxy() << focusWidget(); }
true
QWidget(0x478f18, name = "Form") QKeyEvent(KeyPress, 33, 0, """", false, 1) QWidget(0x478f18, name = "Form") NumPad(0x47eed8, name = "NumPad")
EDIT::
Solved this issue by adding the unicode value of the string. String is now displayed in the widget.
