Keys.onReleased Premature trigger

Trayon

I wanted to look into the QML key capturing mechanism, but immediately found a problem with it. If I keep either key pressed, it continues to register the event. Even if I just keep the right key pressed, and hence never released, it keeps triggering.

    Item {
        focus: true
        Keys.onPressed: {
            if (event.key == Qt.Key_Left) {
                console.log("press left");
                event.accepted = true;
            }
        }
        Keys.onReleased: {
            if (event.key == Qt.Key_Right) {
                console.log("release right");
                event.accepted = true;
            }
        }
        Keys.onReturnPressed: console.log("Pressed return");
    }

Hi
Its the auto repeat feature.
In c++ you check if QKeyEvent::isAutoRepeat()
to filter out if unwanted.
I have no idea with QML :)
