I wrote previously about (Py)Qt widgets ignoring generated keystrokes from third-party apps like Typinator, but now I have verified that they also ignore input from the official Mac OS built-in keystroke generator, the Apple Keyboard Viewer. To test this,
- open System Preferences - select the Language and Text pane - at the bottom, set the check box “Show input menu in menu bar” Now from the menu bar you can pop out a Character Viewer that allows you to view and enter any Unicode, or a Keyboard Viewer that shows you all the special characters entered with modifier keys and enter them. These generated keystrokes are ignored by Qt widgets, altho they are seen by BBEdit and by official Apple apps such as TextEdit. What I'm concerned about here, before filing a Qt bug, is that I may be missing some feature or option I could be setting on my QLineEdit or QTextEdit widget to fix this.
