I can have an application shortcut by e.g.:
Qt Code: 
  1. (void) new QShortcut(Qt::CTRL + Qt::Key_Q, this, SLOT(closeapp()));
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
In this, by pressing Ctrl+Q while the user is focused on the application I can command the program to quit.

The issue is that the program minimizes to tray and I want to be able to have a global hotkey so as to do a specific action while being there.

Is this possible?
