QLineEdit Focus

[zgulser]

Hi there,

I have a simple question. I checked out the forum but I couldn't find the proper solution. I want to know if there is a signal to be emitted when the widget(particularly QLineEdit for my situation) when the widget grabs focus.

Thanks in advance.

there is no such signal. but you can install event filter and catch QEvent::FocusOut/FocusIn event.

Hımm,

So I would reimplement focusInEvent(). But where?

[spirit]

actually you dont need to reimplement that method just install event filter for needed object and catch needed event. read this eventFilter.
