There seems to be a problem with Qt's handling of this type of event. Download and install are easy-peasy for both. Typinator Mac OS 4.5 stars onMacUpdate, but no iOS. My findings (after 90 days of Typinator) Review Ratings: TE Mac OS (2.5 Stars on MacUpdate) iOS app (2 Stars, App Store, 5.00). The key code is irrelevant here, as there is not a single key that represents the character or string. The cost was the predominant rationale for my switching to Typinator. For example, Typinator breaks expansions into 20 character pieces and sends these fragments as separate keyboard events. Look for the CGEventKeyboardGetUnicodeString function.Both PopChar and Typinator use this technique to transmit characters or entire phrases to the current application.

Both PopChar and Typinator use an event mechanism that was introduced with Mac OS X 10.4. However, it’s also lacking in a few key areas, namely the capability to easily create abbreviations based on. I queried Ergonis support and this was the reply:īq. Typinator is a solid text expander with some features not found in its competition. Either method of inserting characters is ignored by Qt (and some other apps) but supported by BBEdit and by official Apple apps such as TextEdit. Now from the menu bar you can open a Character Viewer that allows you to view and enter all Unicode chars, or a Keyboard Viewer that shows you all the special characters entered with modifier keys. at the bottom, set the check box "Show input menu in menu bar".(Edit: Qt also ignores keystroke input from the Apple Keyboard Viewer. When I attempt to input a Unicode character using PopChar, or when Typinator attempts to insert the expansion of a keystroke macro, all that appears in the input field is a lowercase letter a. These widgets mis-read input key events that are generated by "PopChar": and "Typinator":, two popular add-ons from Ergonis Gmbh. My app uses both QLineEdit and QTextEdit running in Mac OS X 10.6.
