[PySide] QShortcut suppressed by parent widget?

[OHUfx]

Thanks.  Got it all working with actions now. Much nicer that way indeed. Onto the next challenge... 
Cheers, Frank

Hey, Sorry forgot to mention to ambiguous shortcuts. :)Also note that actions added to the widgets will also show up in the widgets context menu.http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qwidget.html#addAction In general, I prefer using action where ever it is possible. They are very well support all around and give me a nice separation from the visuals. Tibold KandraiSoftware Architect & Engineer From: Frank Rueter | OHUfx [mailto:frank at ohufx.com]

Though I am getting this at the moment:
    QAction::eventFilter: Ambiguous shortcut overload: I

Will investigate further.
Thanks Tibold.

Thanks, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.On 07/11/2016 07:13 PM, Alexey Vihorev wrote:self.shortcut = QtGui.QShortcut(self, context=QtCore.Qt.WidgetShortcut)The context. In your case IMO it should be QtCore.Qt.WindowShortcut. More here 2016-07-11 9:30 GMT+03:00 Frank Rueter | OHUfx <frank at ohufx.com>:Hi all,

below is some test code that shows the problem I'm having, where a shortcut assigned to a child widget will not be triggered once it's part of the main widget.
It works if the widget is called by itself but not when it's part of a parent widget.

I have been searching the internet for an solution but haven't had any luck.

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers,
