Qt for android - Input focus

[LiaoXuewei]

I have developed a QT application that can run on Windows and Android platforms.

The application has dialog boxes, which contain text boxes. When running on Android platform, the text boxes of the dialog boxes can not get the input focus. The input focus is always on the text box of the main window. How to solve this problem?

[LiaoXuewei]

Application was developed by Qt Widgets.

@LiaoXuewei Why do you use dialogs on Android? This is unusual UI design on Android.

@LiaoXuewei Questioning that doesn't help solving the problem. There are valid reasons for using widgets, including the efford of unnecessarily rewriting a UI.

@mvuori I didn't say it helps to solve the problem. I just wanted to make sure the OP is aware of this UI design topic.

@LiaoXuewei have you given your dialog the main widget as parent?

Yes, the Qt widgets is enough for me. I don't want rewriting a UI.

hi @LiaoXuewei , can you share the code!

[LiaoXuewei]

Thks to all, I have found the reason. Because i have call setting windowFlags funtion, setWindowFlags(windowFlags() | Qt::Tool), it causing problems to occur.
