Qt::Key_Down/Qt::Key_Up problem

andre

It might be that these keys are captured at an earlier stage than in the keyPressEvent handler of the widget. Try installing an event filter to find out. First, try the filter on the QTreeWidget itself. If that doesn't get you the keys, install it on the QApplication.

Hello,
@ void MyClass ::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *event)
{
if ( event->key () == Qt::Key_Delete ) {...}
if ( event->key () == Qt::Key_Down ) {...}
if ( event->key () == Qt::Key_Up ) {...}
...
}
@
what is the event?

try this
@ void MyClass ::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *e)
{
if ( e->key () == Qt::Key_Delete ) {...}
if ( e->key () == Qt::Key_Down ) {...}
if ( e->key () == Qt::Key_Up ) {...}
...
}
@

or

@ class MyClass :public QTreeWidget
{
Q_OBJECT

protected:
    virtual void keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *event);
};

@

and be sure to include the #include <QKeyEvent>

bhamuryen@ I think it doesn't matter.

Why? I think If you want use key events it's work fine. Why is not it work?

Its just a variable/instance name it does not matter if you change from QKeyEvent *event to QKeyEvent *e.

bhamuryen

i now its a variable.
this variable in header file
@virtual void keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *e);@
and now in cpp file
@void MyClass ::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *event)@
two diffrent variable name. this is my main point.

Thanks for all suggestions

I think that different variable name is not a problem in my case. I have the same name in header and cpp files in my code, but still doesn't work.
Now I will try with installing an event filter.

@bhamuryen

The compiler only needs to know what kind of arguments the function requires. It's unimportant for the compiler how you call them. The function declaration only needs to specify the parameter types, order and the return type

you can also use
.h
@void keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *);@

in you header file and it works as expected.

bhamuryen

Do you have #include <QKeyEvent> in your project?

bhamuryen

Ok i tried
virtual void keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *e);

void MyClass ::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *event)

this work fine ;) . But we want to use filter (like tihs if ( e->key () == Qt::Key_Up ) {...}) we need to add the @#include <QKeyEvent>@

@bhamuryen

Yes ofcourse you need to add QKeyEvent header to your project inorder to access the member function of the class.
