Clearing keyboard event on focusChange

[quimnuss]

I've set 'L' to switch the focus from a QGraphicsView to a QListView. The problem is that as the documentation states, the Keyboard events are not cleared and therefore the list processes the keypress and jumps to the element starting with the letter L.

How can I clear/ignore that one keypress?

How do you handle the 'L' key right now?
Some custom key event handler?

I'm using the main widget's virtual void keyReleaseEvent(QKeyEvent *e);

Ok, I had hoped for some actual code, but providing actually useful information should not be hoped for in this time and age.
But then again it means any suggestion can be vague as well :)

Try delaying the focus change.
Ah, heck, try calling setFocus() delayed.

Hahaha

I could build up a MWE if necessary.

can I still get the un-vague answer?

The QWidget's keypressed:


void ProjectForm::keyReleaseEvent(QKeyEvent *e)
{

if(e->key() == Qt::Key_Q)
addWaypoint();
else if(e->key() == Qt::Key_L)
{
ui->lineView->setFocus();
}

e->ignore();
//e->accept();
}

Is that enough information?

...oooooorrr how do I delay the focus?

Added after 17 minutes:

SO I did a MWE and couldn't reproduce the issue (!) so I guess I'm using the event twice or something.

Nevermind, I don't know if I changed something, but it ain't happening anymore.

QMetaObject::invokeMethod(ui->lineView, "setFocus", Qt::QueuedConnection);
