PyQt4 ignores softkeys #195
Description
Original report at SourceForge, opened Thu Mar 3 20:59:32 2011
I can't seem to get anything in PyQt4 + matplot lib to respond to the softkeys. For example,
'g' doesn't draw the grid. I tested this with the example from the web site:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/user_interfaces/embedding_in_qt4.html
I built several PyQt4 applications using this and it didn't work with any of them.
Altogether I have spent a couple of days trying to track this down with no joy.
This is version

This sounds to me like a misunderstanding; the "softkey" event handling is part of the mpl gui, and is not active when mpl is used to embed a plot in an external gui. Then events are handled by the gui, not by mpl.
