Is there a way to force QLineEdit to start accepting input with Hebrew as default

[wysota]

Isn't it easier to switch the keyboard layout on focusInEvent and switch it back on focusOutEvent?

Sorry for being obtuse, but how do I switch the keyboard layout?

P.S in QApplication I found two function that might help: keyboardInputDirection() and keyboardInputLocale() but unfortunately they have no set equivalent.

I never have done that myself and on linux it might be complicated because it depends on the graphical environment (KDE, Gnome, ...).

For windows you can have a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...=VS.85%29.aspx: ActivateKeyboardLayout, GetKeyboardLayout and GetKeyboardLayoutList.

On KDE there is probably some dbus call that will do the trick.
