QAction keyboard shortcuts not working
Message 1 in thread
I am writing application in QT 4.2.2 (GPL edition, windows) and I stumbled
across strange problem.
In helper class, called from main window constructor I construct menu based on
config file in manner like this:
QAction *menu_item=new QAction(menu_item_caption,main_window);
itemId->setData(script_code);
//parent_menu is a menu inserted directly into main window's menubar
parent_menu->addAction(menu_item);
itemId->setShortcut(QKeySequence(accel));
in main window constructor I call:
connect(menubar(), SIGNAL(triggered(QAction *)),
SLOT(menuActivated(QAction*)));
// menuActivated will execute "script_code"
When I select the item from menu, it works (also, shortcut is written near the
item and menuActivated is called via that slot), but pressing the shortcut
does not work as expected (nothing happens, menuActivated is not called)
