I am new to qt and pyqt but have been using wxPython for a long time. I am converting a moderately complex application from wxPython to pyqt and have been impressed with the ease of using pyqt.
Here's my question and I apologize for the verbiage. The ability to get at the default widget text editor in a QTableWidget appears pretty limited. You can initiate editing (editItem) but can only indirectly try to determine if the editor is still open or has been recently closed. I am using the return key to initiate editing of the cells in a particular column but the problem is when the user hits the return key while editing an item. Normal user interface would have that return key close the editor but since I am trapping for the return the app tries to open editing on the item that is already being edited and writes "edit: editing failed" to the console. Now I am redirecting both stdout and stderr but this message appears to be written by qt directly to the console and is not going through pyqt. So, sorry for the longwinded note but any thoughts on either or both of the following: 1) can that "editing failed" message be trapped somehow and/or 2) is there any straightforward way to know that a QTableWidget item is in the process of being edited Note I have used the Google for these issues and although a couple posts have touched on them, there is nothing that speaks directly to the two questions above. I also realize that I could probably use a QTableView and create a custom model and delegate; however, but for this one issue, the standard QTableWidget would work fine.
