      Hi All,

      On my form I have a QTableView widget. In the constructor for the form class I call "grabKeyBoard()."

      I have implemented the keyPressEvent() in my class. However, it is not called when I press a key. I believe this is because the QTableView has taken control of the keyboard. How can I force all keyboard input to the form itself?

      Thanks,

        Hi,

        You can use "installEventFilter":http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/eventsandfilters.html#event-filters on the QTableView and handle what you want in your dialog.

        Hope it helps
