Disable changing of shape of cursor when it inside of QTextEdit

Kaznachei

It works, really thank you. Just i wanted to know which way is cheaper to solve my problem. As for me all that i saw was to too expensive. Is this way is ok? Just i wrote some SLOTS in my custom GraphicsRectItem
void lineChoosed()
{
text->viewport()->setCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor);
text->setReadOnly(true);
setAcceptHoverEvents(false);
setCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor);
}
void textChoosed()
{
text->viewport()->setCursor(Qt::IBeamCursor);
text->setReadOnly(false);
setAcceptHoverEvents(true);
}

and in my custom GraphicsView when i create a new one GraphicsRectITem

connect(this, &GraphicsView::lineChoosed, item, &RectItem::lineChoosed);
connect(this, &GraphicsView::textChoosed, item, &RectItem::textChoosed);

That means when i emit lineChoosed or textChoosed then are called my slots-functions as much as i have my custom GraphicsRectItem. Is it okay?

Hi, yes that should be fine.
Should not be heavy.

Kaznachei

Thank you a lot. May i know how can i realize it using eventFilter? I tried
text->setObjectName("text');

and in GraphicsView::eventFilter(QObject* obj, QEvent *event)
{
if (obj->objectName() == "test") return false;
return QObject::eventFilter(obj, event);
}

(obj->objectName() == "test") works but shape of cursor still changing

Hi
it's actually the viewport that does the most of it, so assign (installEventFilter) the eventFilter to
text->viewport() instead.
and check for viewports name instead. (or set it to test also)

Kaznachei

Like this ? I wrote it in GraphicsView
RectItem* item = new RectItem;
item->setObjectName("I");
item->setPos(event->pos() - QPoint(item->rect().width()/2, item->rect().height()/2));
item->text->viewport()->installEventFilter(this);

mrjj

@Kaznachei
yes, looks right.
"this" being GraphicsView with the eventFilter function, i assume.

Kaznachei

Oh, May i realize it? I want to my GraphicsView get events of my GraphicsItem. I want to my GraphicsView filters events of my GraphicsItem .

@Kaznachei
Hi
The syntax is
monitoredObj->installEventFilter(filterObj);

monitoredObj = GraphicsItem

filterObj = GraphicsView
and this should have the
:eventFilter(QObject* obj, QEvent *event)
function.

Kaznachei

In GraphicsView
RectItem* item = new RectItem;
item->setObjectName("I");
item->setPos(event->pos() - QPoint(item->rect().width()/2, item->rect().height()/2));
item->installEventFilter(this);

and

bool eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *event)
{
if (obj->objectName() == "I")
qDebug() << "ok"
return QGraphicsView::eventFilter(obj, event);
}

qDebug() doesn`t write.

mrjj

@Kaznachei
Hi
try with

bool eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *event)
{

qDebug() << obj->objectName();

if (obj->objectName() == "I")
qDebug() << "ok"
return QGraphicsView::eventFilter(obj, event);
}

and see what is going on

Kaznachei

qDebug write only this

@Kaznachei
Hmm. odd.
Try
qDebug() << obj->metaObject()->className()
and see what type it is.

Else use the debugger to see what obj is.

Kaznachei

only

Hi
Maybe eventFilters do not work on QGraphicsItems
I have never tested it but since they are not qobjects, i think its a no go.

Kaznachei

Yes. I read that QGraphicsObject has eventFilter, but not QGraphicsItem. Thank you a lot for ur helping.

mrjj

@Kaznachei
yes QGraphicsObject also inherits from QObject so that makes good sense it can use event filters too.
You are most welcome.
