1) Check that it is in the range of characters and 2) create a string with QString::number(code)

Do you want to take:

Qt Code:

Switch view

Qt::Key key = Qt::Key_Semicolon;

Qt::Key key = Qt::Key_Semicolon;

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

and turn it into ";" or "Qt::Key_Semicolon"?

If you got the Qt::Key value in a QKeyEvent then QKeyEvent::text() may be useful.

Qt::Key key = Qt::Key_W;
qDebug() << QKeySequence(key).toString();
No longer necessary.
