[QT3] QListView and Key_Delete - doesn't work?

Hi there,

I am trying to get a simple thing running: alowing the user to delete a listviewitem with the "del" key. But it seems that the listview doesn't get that key. Some other keys I tried are not a problem....

It seem that something is catching my keay away?

Any help is welcome

Thanks in advance

Rafael

Code:

---

void CEngravingDialog::keyPressEvent( QKeyEvent *event )
{
if( listViewElements->hasMouse() )
	{
		switch( event->key() )
		{
		case Key_Delete:																//Delete if item in listview is selected
			ButtonDelete();
			break;
		default:
			QWidget::keyPressEvent( event );
		}
	}
}

you are catching the kePressEvent on the listView through the dialog.
Did you turn on global mouse grabbing?
Try doing the same as you did but with the listView directly.

I made such an option for myself :)

I subclassed QListView and then reimplemented the keyPressEvent..

Like this...

Code:

---

void MyListView::keyPressEvent( QKeyEvent *event )
{
    QListViewItemIterator it(this);
 
    if ( (event->key() == Qt::Key_Delete) )
    {   
        while ( it.current() ) 
        {
            if( it.current()->isSelected() )
            {
               ButtonDelete( it.current() );
               break;
            }
            else
            {
               it++;
            }
        }
    }
 
    QListView::keyPressEvent(event);
}

I think this works fine for single selection :)
It's a different approach than yours, but it's an idea :)
