If you want to stop key events from being passed on to other widgets, just accept the key event with event.accept(). If you want to intercept events at a higher level, you'll need to start looking at event filters. The event model is described in detail in a Qt Quarterly article from 2004: http://doc.trolltech.com/qq/qq11-events.html On the other hand, if you just want to stop the window from being closed by the window system, you should reimplement closeEvent() in your main window and explicitly ignore the event passed to it: def closeEvent(self, event): event.ignore() Hope this helps, David -- David Boddie Lead Technical Writer, Trolltech ASA _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
