Numeric keypad doesn't work

[skylendar]

Hi there and thx for reading and answering this post.

As you know, you can create QAction with shortcuts.

auto xy = new QAction("blah blah");
xy->setShortcut(QKeySequence(Qt::Key_Plus));

you can of course activate xy by pressing the + key on the main keyboard, but it doesn't work with the + key from the numeric keypad, nor do the - * / and the digit work.

Is it a bug ?

Ah, and I forgot to mention that the + for the numeric keypad works with a QLineEdit and any other text tool with or without qt.

Hey!

I am afraid that at the moment that doesn't seem to be possible. By the way, there is already an opened issue on https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-2913. On the other hand it's attached to an inactive Nokia identity, so you should re-open a duplicate for this thing in case if you are interested.

Hope I helped you at least a little.

ok, so...

Well, numpad works for input classes cos they basically do override keyReleaseEvent, which is sensible to numbpad keys. In case of QAction it's not a case.
