Hi,

I am trying to write a code so that when I press "1" it should map it and show a , b, or c according tot he timeout conditions from the previous key pressed.
Following is my code:

Qt Code: 
  1. if((e->key() == Qt::Key_1) && ((target->objectName() == "textBox1") || (target->objectName() == "textBox2") || (target->objectName() == "textBox3") || (target->objectName() == "textBox4")))
  2.         {
  3.             int value;
  4.             bool stat = connect(sameKey, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(second()));
  5.             qDebug()<<"connect returns "<< stat;
  6.             sameKey->start(1000);
  7.  
  8.             value = processKey(Qt::Key_1);
  9.             qDebug()<<"value received from processKey is "<<value;
  10.             if(value == 0)
  11.             {
  12.                 if(target->objectName() == "textBox1")
  13.                 {
  14.                     QString temp = textBox1->toPlainText();
  15.                     temp.append("a");
  16.                     textBox1->setText(temp);
  17.                 }
  18.             }
  19.             else if(value == 1)
  20.             {
  21.                 if(target->objectName() == "textBox1")
  22.                 {
  23.                     QString temp = textBox1->toPlainText();
  24.                     temp.append("b");
  25.                     textBox1->setText(temp);
  26.                 }
  27.             }
  28.             else if(value == 2)
  29.             {
  30.                 if(target->objectName() == "textBox1")
  31.                 {
  32.                     QString temp = textBox1->toPlainText();
  33.                     temp.append("c");
  34.                     textBox1->setText(temp);
  35.                 }
  36.             }

the process key function
Qt Code: 
  1. int MainWindow::processKey(int keyCode)
  2. {
  3. //    qDebug()<<"got the keycode as "<<keyCode;
  4.     current_key = keyCode;
  5.  
  6.     if((!timerFlag) && (current_key == prev_key))
  7.     {
  8.         qDebug("b4 timer stop");
  9.         count++;
  10.         if(count == 3)
  11.             count = 0;
  12.         sameKey->stop();
  13.     }
  14.     else
  15.     {
  16.         qDebug("in else");
  17.         count = 0;
  18.         timerFlag = 0;
  19. //        sameKey->stop();
  20.     }
  21.  
  22.     prev_key = current_key;
  23.     qDebug()<<"returning count as "<<count;
  24.     return count;
  25. }
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

the update timer function
Qt Code: 
  1. void MainWindow::second()
  2. {
  3.     qDebug("in timer update slot.");
  4.     sameKey->stop();
  5.     timerFlag = 1;
  6. }
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But the output I get when I press 1 twice simultaneously is "ab" and not just "b".
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
