Hi, I'm developing a FOSS music player (using Qt Widgets), and when I run it on my company laptop, after about 15 minutes of user inactivity (not touching the keyboard or mouse) the screen turns off and the Windows session is locked. But I've checked the screensaver setting, and screensaver is disabled. So I'm guessing that this is a security measure configured by my employer using Group Policy. But other programs like VLC don't seem to suffer from this problem, so they must have some mechanism for preventing this.
I did some searching, and I know that on Windows, for example, periodic calls to SendInput() can be used to simulate user activity and prevent screensaver activation. But I would like to avoid having to write platform specific code. Does Qt provide some platform-independent way to keep the screen active? Or do I need to submit an enhancement request? Thanks, Kevin _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
