QApplication::focusWidget() returns pointer to widget which has focus at this moment. Also there is QApplication::focusChanged(QWidget *old, QWidget *now) signal and you can connect it to slot to change variable.

You can always redefine/(create subclasses by inheritance) the widgets with your own slots and signals.

As far as I can understand your requirement, you can do.

QObject::connect(wid1,SIGNAL(clicked()),yourvariableclass,SLOT(setMyVariable_wid1())); QObject::connect(wid2,SIGNAL(clicked()),yourvariableclass,SLOT(setMyVariable_wid2()));

If my answer isn't apt for your question, please explain the problem a little more. I can help you with it. :)
