action with shortcut triggers in parent

[tuli]

Hi,

This is in Python 5.12, but the same applies to C++. I am writing a plugin for an C++ application that embeds python and PySide.
All is working well, except when I register actions with a shortcut in my QTableView widget (tableview->addAction()), then the shortcut triggers in the parent application, rather than in my tableview. I have tried Qt::ShortcutContext, but they dont make a difference.


I can hack up something with an eventFilter, but certainly there must be a better way?


edit: ok, it only happens if a certain widget of the parent application has focus. so i am guessing they are doing funky stuff in event listeners or something and my only choice is to step down on that level too.
