Custom Hardware KeyBoard Driver for QT5

[piyushverma]

Hello,

We have hardware which have matrix key 6x5, As keys not enouch one key would be multiple function, Line numlock/capslock/

I already read this post https://forum.qt.io/topic/67176/custom-keyboard-driver-in-qt-5 & this one https://www.kdab.com/qt-input-method-depth/

They give overview, but not right pointer or example code where to start.
Most information availble online is for qt4 using QWSKeyboardHandler Any suggestion where can get more information on it,
Which qt code handle capslock and numlock on linux ?

Hi,

Which qt code handle capslock and numlock on linux ?

None, that happens at a lower level. For capslock, your application will receive the key events with the key and modifier as if your were pressing both for each entry.

For numlock, you'll have to use native APIs.

How is your custom keyboard seen by your system ?
