QTest::sendKeyEvent(...Qt::ControlModifier) causes a Command Key sent on Mac (and vice versa all QKeyEvents on Mac having Command pressed report the Qt::ControlModifier). What I need to do in order to achieve a real Ctrl key sending ?

CodePudding user response：

Two solutions exists:

• Disable the mapping transformation: QCoreApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_MacDontSwapCtrlAndMeta)
• Use the Qt::MetaModifier (Control key on mac is by default mapped to Qt::MetaModifier)

As mentioned in the docs, this mapping is normally expected by macOS users, as shortcuts are normally using the Command key instead of the Control (which is used on other platforms).
