Hi Daniel,

You mean as a custom widget? There is no way for a widget to know that.

If you want to do something really nasty you could check the parent 
chain of the widget and see if you find widgets with "designer" in their 
objectName(), but there is no guarantee that this will work.

What are trying to acheive here?

Yes, a custom widget.
The Widget grab the keyboard input with grabKeyboard().
But during the Design time this leads to the fact that the property editor
does not receive any keyboard events.
