You're asking us to review a lot of non-trivial code that's not going to be part of this project. And, sorry to say it, we don't have time for that.

You are absolutely right and I apologize, at the time it seemed relevant.

Hey @th3w1zard1, thanks for reporting. Your suggestion sounds reasonable to me.

@dalthviz, what do you think?

The initial suggestion makes sense to me 👍

Also, just in case, I think this behavior with PyQt6 is related with the deprecations done to QKeyCombination (int is deprecated and toCombined should be used and the & operator is deprecated and the | operator is the one recommended): https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qkeycombination-obsolete.html

So, for example, with PyQt6/PySide6 you can do something like:

(Qt.KeyboardModifier.ControlModifier | Qt.Key.Key_A).toCombined()

But not something like:

int(Qt.KeyboardModifier.ControlModifier & Qt.Key.Key_A)

I got fed up with the nonsense differences between the qt versions, ended up writing this monstrosity which has been tested for the last 3 hours:

the asserts were originally using is. It seems ONLY pyside2 requires == for some reason.

No idea how this will work with different versions, these were tested on all 4 qt libs with the most up-to-date versions available on pip.

Is there perhaps anything else my test needs that I'm not thinking about, before I send away to production? Thanks!

You're asking us to review a lot of non-trivial code that's not going to be part of this project. And, sorry to say it, we don't have time for that.
