Unable to write in QTextEdit

I wrote new class inherited from QTextEdit and have keypressevent inside my class called "MyTextEdit.cpp"

Now I want to use this in other class called "MyEditor.cpp", so i created an object of MyTextEdit class and set the setReadOnly() property to false. But it not allow me to write in textedit. I also set it to setEnabled() to true. But still facing same issue.

I think i am missing something or made some silly mistake.

Can anyone let me know what i am doing wrong here.

In your keyPressEvent() method, do you call the base class implementation?

Yah, but textedit itself not writable, although I can call my kerypressevent, which is not an issue. Issue is i not even get textEdit as writable/editable.

What you are describing is captured below:

Code:

---

#include <QApplication>
#include <QTextEdit>
#include <QDebug>
 
class MyTextEdit: public QTextEdit
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    MyTextEdit(QWidget *p = 0): QTextEdit(p) { }
protected:
    void keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *event) {
        // do local stuff
        qDebug() << "Doing local stuff";
        // then do the base stuff
        QTextEdit::keyPressEvent(event);
    }
};
 
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    QApplication app(argc, argv);
    MyTextEdit edit;  // defaults to editable
    edit.show();
    return app.exec();
}
#include "main.moc"

and this works. So, is this what you are doing?

yah thanks.

But what you explained, I previously done same thing. And it works if it is as standalone program. But when I do same thing in my application , its not work. and not allows me to edit or write ?? :(
