Maybe what you want is

widget->setAttribute(Qt::WA_TransparentForMouseEvents)

? That's what QRubberBand uses to let it's parent handle the mouse events. As for keyboard events, a QWidget doesn't get any keyboard events unless it has set itself a focusPolicy().

setFocusPolicy( Qt::NoFocus );

should therefore take care of the keyboard events.
