[PyQt] Getting mouse and key event with a qtablewidget

[James Emerton]

There are two methods to accomplish this:

1.  Subclass QTable and reimplement contentsKeyPressEvent() and
contentsContextMenuEvent()

2.  Add an eventFilter to the viewport of your table.

Of the two methods, the first is generally preferred.  Have a look at
the Qt docs for more.
