Function Documentation
| long accelModMaskX | ( | ) |
Returns bitwise OR'ed mask containing Shift, Ctrl, Alt, and Win (if available).

- modXShift()
- See also:
- modXLock()
- See also:
- modXCtrl()
- See also:
- modXAlt()
- See also:
- modXNumLock()
- See also:
- modXWin()

| bool initializeMods | ( | ) |
Initialises the values to return for the mod*() functions below. Called automatically by those functions if not already initialized.
| bool isShiftAsModifierAllowed | ( | int | keyQt | |
| ) |
Test if the shift modifier should be recorded for a given key.
For example, if shift+5 produces '%' Qt wants ctrl+shift+5 recorded as ctrl+% and in that case this function would return false.
- Since:
- 4.7.1
| bool, int keyCode keyQtToCodeX | ( | int | keyQt | |
| ) |
Extracts the code from the given Qt key.
- Parameters:
-
keyQt the qt key code keyCode if successful, the symbol will be written here
- Returns:
- true if successful, false otherwise
| bool, long mod keyQtToModX | ( | int | keyQt | |
| ) |
Extracts the modifiers from the given Qt key and converts them in a mask of X11 modifiers.
- Parameters:
-
keyQt the qt key code mod if successful, the modifiers will be written here
- Returns:
- true if successful, false otherwise
| bool, int sym keyQtToSymX | ( | int | keyQt | |
| ) |
Extracts the symbol from the given Qt key and converts it to an X11 symbol + modifiers.
- Parameters:
-
keyQt the qt key code sym if successful, the symbol will be written here
- Returns:
- true if successful, false otherwise
| bool keyboardHasMetaKey | ( | ) |
Returns true if the current keyboard layout supports the Meta key. Specifically, whether the Super or Meta keys are assigned to an X modifier.
- Returns:
- true if the keyboard has a Meta key
- See also:
- modXMeta()
| QString modToStringUser | ( | long | mod | |
| ) |
Converts the mask of ORed KKey.ModFlag modifiers to a user-readable string.
- Parameters:
-
mod the mask of ORed KKey.ModFlag modifiers
- Returns:
- the user-readable string
| long modXAlt | ( | ) |
Returns the X11 Alt (Mod1) modifier mask/flag.
- Returns:
- the X11 Alt (Mod1) modifier mask/flag.
- See also:
- accelModMaskX()
| long modXCtrl | ( | ) |
Returns the X11 Ctrl modifier mask/flag.
- Returns:
- the X11 Ctrl modifier mask/flag.

Returns the X11 Lock modifier mask/flag.
- Returns:
- the X11 Lock modifier mask/flag.
- See also:
- accelModMaskX()
| long modXMeta | ( | ) |
Returns the X11 Win (Mod3) modifier mask/flag.
- Returns:
- the X11 Win (Mod3) modifier mask/flag.
- See also:
- keyboardHasWinKey()

Returns the X11 ScrollLock modifier mask/flag.
- Returns:
- the X11 ScrollLock modifier mask/flag.
- See also:
- accelModMaskX()
| long modXShift | ( | ) |
Returns the X11 Shift modifier mask/flag.
- Returns:
- the X11 Shift modifier mask/flag.
- See also:
- accelModMaskX()
| bool, int modQt modXToQt | ( | long | modX | |
| ) |
Converts the mask of ORed X11 modifiers to a mask of ORed Qt key code modifiers.
- Parameters:
-
modX the mask of X11 modifiers modQt the mask of Qt key code modifiers will be written here if successful
