In our application, we have a QTabWidget. We allow the users to rename the
tabs. One of our users discovered that if they put an '&' in the string, it
isn't displayed, and if they put two together in sequence ("&&"), a single '&'
is displayed on the tab widget.
I completely understand what's happening, the text they are entering is being
evaluated by the native widgets for the presence of the '&' character to
automatically create shortcuts as described here:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qabstractbutton.html#text-prop.
In other parts of our application, I do want the automatic shortcut
functionality (i.e. having the &File for the File menu is something I'd like to
keep), but for this specific tab widget I'd like to disable that functionality
since our users aren't software developers and they find it weird that the
ampersand character behaves differently than other characters in the string.
I don't see any way to disable that functionality though, is there one that I'm
missing?
