thanks a lot for the explanation. however there is one thing, that i don't quite understand: cmd-. on a QPlainTextEdit adds a . to the document ... so it is not completely swallowed by cocoa ... also i wonder, why the hell qt doesn't post a run-time warning when setting cmd-. a shortcut, especially as qt4 did handle the case ... iac, i think i can hack my way around it, now ... tim _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
