Style Sheet for custom widget

Hi all,

I made my custom widget based on QWidget, just several button and labels. How to set style sheet from my custom widget?

I set object name for widget

Code:

---

myWidget->setObjectName("myWidget");

---

and wrote small style sheet

Code:

---

QWidget#myWidget {
   color: red;
}

---

but nothing happened. :o

The reason why I want to do it this way is because I want to have something like this in the future:

Code:

---

QWidget#myWidget > QPushButton {
color: red;
}

---

Oh, I had this problem time ago myself, but I can't remember exactly the solution (and even find it now...) But you must either set autofillbackground or even provide a paintEvent() in your subclassed widget...

Code:

---

MyWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *e)
{
  QWidget::paintEvent(e);
}

---

Thanks mate! It helps! :cool:

Could you please provide some snippets of your code? I have the same problem and the solution doesn't work for me.
I have Qt 4.6 btw
