QWidget::inputMethodEvent

is an event handler which you can reimplement to do custom stuff. There is no need to call it directly.

@Christian-Ehrlicher , Ya, I know, but It is not getting called onTextChanged signal.

I'm not really familiar with QInputMethodEvent but why should this be created during onTextChanged? Please give some more informations what you're trying to achieve. Best would be a compilable example.

@Christian-Ehrlicher ,

I want to know when this inputMethodEvent() method gets called.

Hi
Did you study the docs ?
It says "Note that when creating custom text editing widgets, the Qt::WA_InputMethodEnabled window attribute must be set explicitly (using the QWidget::setAttribute() function) in order to receive input method events."

But i do wonder what you need it for ?

WA_InputMethodEnabled

I am setting this attribute Qt::WA_InputMethodEnabled

I would have thought: it won't get called "on"/"from"/"as a result of" textChanged signal. It will be called as a consequence of the input, earlier than textChanged, no?

I reimplemeted this method, It is not at all getting called.

What does that have to do with your statement:

Ya, I know, but It is not getting called onTextChanged signal.
