KeyEvent on StackedWidget

Benj

Hey, at first i must apologize for my poor english. I am new in Qt and seek for an solution of the follow issue. First my code:

bool MainWindow::eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *ev){
if((obj == ui->stackedWidget) && (ui->stackedWidget->currentIndex() == 1)){
if(ev->type() == QEvent::KeyPress)
{
QKeyEvent key = static_cast<QKeyEvent>(ev);
if(key.key() == Qt::Key_Control){
ui->stackedWidget->setCurrentIndex(0);
}

    }
    else{
        QPoint position = this->mapToGlobal(this->pos());
        int x = position.x(); int y=position.y();
        this->cursor().setPos((x/2)+175, (y/2)+175);
    }

    return true;
}

after my attempt to check wether control key was pressed, about a key event in this function, i received folllow error message:

Error: no matching function for call to 'QKeyEvent::QKeyEvent(QEvent*&)'
QKeyEvent key = static_cast<QKeyEvent>(ev);

somebody has an idea??
}

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Your static_cast is wrong: ev is a pointer.

QKeyEvent *key = static_cast<QKeyEvent *>(ev);

I have the pointers set, such as bottom in the cut out of my code. It works finaly, Thank You!!!

//your code here
bool MainWindow::eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *ev){
    if((obj == ui->stackedWidget) && (ui->stackedWidget->currentIndex() == 1)){
        if(ev->type() == QEvent::KeyPress)
        {
            QKeyEvent *key = dynamic_cast<QKeyEvent*>(ev);
            if(key->key() == Qt::Key_Control){

                ui->stackedWidget->setCurrentIndex(0);
                ui->stackedWidget->setCursor(Qt::ArrowCursor);
                this->socket->closeTcp();
                return true;
            }

        }
        else{
            this->position = this->mapToGlobal(this->pos());
            int x = position.x(); int y=position.y();
            this->cursor().setPos((x/2)+175, (y/2)+175);
            return true;
        }

        return false;
    }
}
