Raise key pressed event when button is clicked?

[newstead]

download the QtExtended source code.

go to
src/plugins/inputmethods/keyboard

there they have implemented a virtual keyboard. this may help

They use the QWSServer to send keyevents which obviously doesn't work on the desktop. It would have been convienient to be able to use some sort of generic Qt-feature for future reuse but I'll guess I have to go with QWSServer for now... thanks.
