CTRL+X/C/V/A for custom widgets

Jake007

Hi!

I'd like to assign cut, copy, paste and select all shortcuts to a QGraphicsView widget.
If I do this using menus (which is how I'd like to) and assign each action with its corresponding shortcut, I override shortcuts for all other widget ( QTextEdit, QLineEdit ...).

How can I solve this?

If possible, I'd like to have this actions listed in QMenu with shortcuts.

I also looked over an alternative, overriding QGraphicsView::keyPressEvent, and may question is, is Qt::key_Copy for ctrl+c?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Jake

EDIT:
It works with default widgets. It does not work with inherited QTextEdit and overridden keyPressEvent();

Code:
@void ConsoleOutput::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *e)
{
switch(e->key())
{
case Qt::Key_Enter:
case Qt::Key_Return:
emit returnPressed();
output("<br />");
break;
case Qt::Key_Left:
case Qt::Key_Right:
case Qt::Key_Up:
case Qt::Key_Down:
break;
default:
cursorToEnd();
}

if(myFirstInput)
{
myFirstInput = false;

myOrg = this->toPlainText();
myLen = this->toPlainText().length();
}

else if(e->key() == Qt::Key_Backspace)
{
if(toPlainText().size() < myLen)
return;

else if(toPlainText()[(toPlainText().size()-1)] == '\n')
return;
}

QTextEdit::keyPressEvent(e);
}@

I pinpointed the problem.
It's because I set widget to read only. If I do not, it works as it should.

In my opinion it's a bug. Can someone confirm this? Ctrl + a and ctrl + c should work even if it's read only, since data is not changed.
