Detailed Description

This widget lets the user choose a QKeySequence, which is usually used as a shortcut. The recording is initiated when the widget receives the focus and ends one second after the user releases the last key.

See also QKeySequenceEdit::keySequence.

Property Documentation

keySequence : QKeySequence

This property contains the currently chosen key sequence.

The shortcut can be changed by the user or via setter function.

Access functions:

QKeySequence keySequence() const
void setKeySequence(const QKeySequence &keySequence)

Notifier signal:

void keySequenceChanged(const QKeySequence &keySequence)

Member Function Documentation

QKeySequenceEdit::QKeySequenceEdit(const QKeySequence &keySequence, QWidget *parent = nullptr)

Constructs a QKeySequenceEdit widget with the given keySequence and parent.

QKeySequenceEdit::QKeySequenceEdit(QWidget *parent = nullptr)

Constructs a QKeySequenceEdit widget with the given parent.

[slot] void QKeySequenceEdit::clear()

Clears the current key sequence.

[signal] void QKeySequenceEdit::editingFinished()

This signal is emitted when the user finishes entering the shortcut.

Note: there is a one second delay before releasing the last key and emitting this signal.

[virtual] QKeySequenceEdit::~QKeySequenceEdit()

Destroys the QKeySequenceEdit object.
