How to override keyPressEvent of QTextEdit?

Question

I override keyPressEven() of widget QTextEdit:

void myTextEdit::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *e)
{
    if(e->key()==Qt::Key_0)
    {
        qDebug() << "Ok";
    }
}

Button 0 works - show "Ok", but does not write in field of QTextEdit. Why? Thanks advance.

You need to call the base class implementation if you want to keep the default behaviour:

void myTextEdit::keyPressEvent(QKeyEvent *e)
{
    if(e->key()==Qt::Key_0)
    {
        qDebug() << "Ok";
    }
    QTextEdit::keyPressEvent(e);
}

See the docs for keyPressEvent.
