I am trying to create a shortcut that uses a multi-key combination for a widget.

This works:
Qt Code: 
  1. (void) new QShortcut(Qt::Key_F5, this, SLOT(refresh())); // refresh
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

This doesnt:
Qt Code: 
  1. (void) new QShortcut(Qt::Key_Shift + Qt::Key_C, this, SLOT(clear())); // clear
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
I also tried this, but it does not work either.
Qt Code: 
  1. (void) new QShortcut(QKeySequence(Qt::Key_Shift + Qt::Key_C), this, SLOT(clear())); // clear
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Do i need to override keyPressEvent or is QShortcut capable of handling Shift+C some other way?

Thanks in advance.
