Installing QtVirtualKeyboard on a Qt Widget App

[jsulm]

@Deneguil Are you cross-compiling?
To install virtual keyboard on RaspberryPI install these packages using apt:

• libqt5virtualkeyboard5
• libqt5virtualkeyboard5-dev

[Deneguil]

@jsulm It's for an embedded app so it'll only run on a raspberry
Thank you for the packages, I now need to add QT += virtualkeyboard in the .pro file and create an input panel to use the keyboard right?

[jsulm]

@Deneguil yes

[Deneguil]

@jsulm thank you you've helped me a lot the keyboard works I only need to style it now

@nadimnadaf If you read this thread you will see what the solution was.
Did you try that?

[nadimnadaf]

@jsulm Yes

Hi,

So what exactly did you do to install Qt on your target ?
Use distribution packages ?
Deployed your cross-compiled Qt ?
If the latter, did you cross-compile the module as well ?

Its a Yocto Setup.

Then you also have to build QtVirtualKeyboard module using Yocto I guess
