    Default QWebView Ctrl+C for copy isn't working, how to fix ?

    I'm trying to copy some simple text from a QWebView.
    I've tried to use this code but doesn't working too:

    Qt Code:
    1. QAction *act = this->pageAction(QWebPage::Copy);
    2. act->setShortcut(QKeySequence::Copy);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    How I can enable the Ctrl+C command ?

    Ctrl+C should be working just fine.
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.

    Not here, tried so many times pressing Ctrl+C and nothing was copied.
    Created another project and tried and not working.

    have the same problem (qt 4.7.2 win7 x64)


    Added after 4 minutes:


    Try the following workaround. It worked for me.
    Qt Code:
    1. QAction *copyAction = webView->pageAction(QWebPage::Copy);
    2. copyAction->setShortcut(QKeySequence::Copy);
    3. webView->addAction(copyAction);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode
