Setting focus in text box

[joeydonovan4]

I have a text box and when I hover the mouse over it, it accepts keyboard focus. I want the text box to only accept keyboard focus when it is clicked, and not when it is hovered over. How do I do this? I am using: widget->setFocusPolicy(Qt::ClickFocus) but it doesn't seem to be affecting anything.

By default it is click focus only. Do you have sample code ? I tried with 3 different text boxes. TextBoxes get focus when I click on them.

@dheerendra

QWidget* widget = (QWidget*)field->id;
widget->setFocusPolicy(Qt::ClickFocus);

id is a handle to the text box

The way i do it is ui->textbox->setFocus();

@root0x I'm new to this so help me out. What is ui a pointer to? And is 'textbox' replacing 'widget' in this case?

@joeydonovan4 "ui " - it is pointer to auto-generated UI from UI-designer ( If you using UI-designer )

Can you post some more code ?

textbox is just the widget name
