Tab navigation and QListWidget

[Arthur]

Hello,

I have this fantastic Dialog, Qt::StrongFocus, with 2 buttons (Qt::StrongFocus) and a QListWidget (Qt::StrongFocus) and TabKeyNavigation = true...

When I tab through the Dialog and QListWidget gets the focus, it will select the next item in the list when I press Tab again...It should step out and select the next widget...

What am I doing wrong?

You can disable tab key navigation on the view.

Thank you for your answer. However turning off tabnavigation results in the fact that I cannot set the focus on my list using the tab key.

I want:
Focus in by tab
Focus out by tab
Change selection using arrow keys.

Just like every regular windows app. I don't know how to configure my list so that it behaves like that...

Strange, when I disable tab key in my app, I get this focus on the first item (not the blue rubberband, but the selection rect). When I tab again, the focus goes on the following widget.

Moreover, to change selection with arrow keys, I think it's enabled by default...

Arthur, have you reimplemented any event handlers?

Here's an example which works fine for me with Qt4.2.2/X11:

#include <QtGui>
 
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	QApplication a(argc, argv);
	QWidget window;
	QVBoxLayout* layout = new QVBoxLayout(&window);
	layout->addWidget(new QPushButton("Dummy top button", &window));
	QListWidget* list = new QListWidget(&window);
	list->setTabKeyNavigation(false);
	for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
		list->addItem(QString::number(i));
	layout->addWidget(list);
	layout->addWidget(new QPushButton("Dummy bottom button", &window));
	window.show();
	return a.exec();
}

#include <QtGui>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	QApplication a(argc, argv);
	QWidget window;
	QVBoxLayout* layout = new QVBoxLayout(&window);
	layout->addWidget(new QPushButton("Dummy top button", &window));
	QListWidget* list = new QListWidget(&window);
	list->setTabKeyNavigation(false);
	for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
		list->addItem(QString::number(i));
	layout->addWidget(list);
	layout->addWidget(new QPushButton("Dummy bottom button", &window));
	window.show();
	return a.exec();
}
