When you write self.defaultButton.clicked() you are actually calling that function there and then. > Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong? Maybe I'm not understanding > QAccel's abilities? You need to pass the slot's name as a string: self.shortcutKey.connectItem(id, self.defaultButton, SLOT("clicked()")) Alternatively, since this is Python, you can also write self.shortcutKey.connectItem(id, self.defaultButton.clicked) which is much nicer to read. :-) David _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list PyKDE@mats.imk.fraunhofer.de http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
