Capture a keyboard event

[high_flyer]

Can you show your code that is dealing with the key events?
If you are using ascii() for these keys it wont work since they don't have an ascii() representation, you should use the Qt::Key value.

I could receive the arrow press event but on enter press nothing is happening except a repeating of
other events (defined in the code).....

key_press is my global variable

void MyWidget::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *event)
{
if(event->key() == Qt::Key_Up) {
key_press = -1;
}am able to
else if(event->key() == Qt::Key_Down) {
key_press = 1;
}am able to
else if(event->key() == Qt::Key_Enter) {
key_press = 3; // But this part of the code is not reached on enter key press
}
else {
QWidget::keyPressEvent(event);
}

// other events....

}
