[Qt-qml] Trigger Keys.onPressed to a QML Item (e.g. TextInput)

[Tobias Renz]

Hi,

In my mobile application I want to use a TextInput that won't have the focus.
That is because I use an OnScreenKeyboard which has the focus. And I navigate on it by some keys.

Now I'm searching for a method by which I can emulate key presses to a TextInput.
Any Ideas, guys??

I thought of something like this which doesn't work because I can't emit Pressed from outside Keys

   TextInput {
        id: input
        anchors.left: parent.left
        anchors.right: parent.right
        //activeFocusOnPress: false
        anchors.top: parent.top
        text: "2.10"
        horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignHCenter
        font.pointSize: 20

        function triggerKey() {
            emit Keys.Pressed(Qt.Key_Back)
        }
    }
=> triggerKey() would have a paramter that passes the key to the Pressed method obviously

Best Regards,
Tobias
