Detailed Description

Contains parameters that describe a key event

Note

Properties can be used directly when from __feature__ import true_property is used or via accessor functions otherwise.

property acceptedᅟ: bool

Setting accepted to true prevents the key event from being propagated to the item’s parent.

Generally, if the item acts on the key event then it should be accepted so that ancestor items do not also respond to the same event.

Access functions:
property countᅟ: int

Holds the number of keys involved in this event. If text is not empty, this is simply the length of the string.

Access functions:
property isAutoRepeatᅟ: bool

Holds whether this event comes from an auto-repeating key.

Access functions:
property keyᅟ: int

This property holds the code of the key that was pressed or released.

See Qt.Key for the list of keyboard codes.

See also QKeyEvent::key().

Access functions:
property modifiersᅟ: int

This property holds the keyboard modifier flags that existed immediately before the event occurred.

See also QKeyEvent::modifiers().

Access functions:
property nativeScanCodeᅟ: int

This property contains the native scan code of the key that was pressed. It is passed through from QKeyEvent unchanged.

Access functions:
property textᅟ: str

This property holds the Unicode text that the key generated. The text returned can be an empty string in cases where modifier keys, such as Shift, Control, Alt, and Meta, are being pressed or released. In such cases key will contain a valid value.
