how to set focus on widget if it is selected??

Hi All,
I've created some small window ( derived from Qwidget), and place it in top of another QWidget. My requirment is ,If i select any small window then it should be focused and border need to be green. I override the paintevent(0 methode and did like following.

Code:

---

this->setStyleSheet("border: 2px solid Red");
this->setFocus();

---

But its not working? Can any bold tell me how to achive this.?

Thank u all.

Donot set style sheet in painEvent .

You only need to set the stylesheet initially.

Code:

---

QWidget:focus {
    border: 3px solid green;
   }

---

But if you use stylesheet, you will need to set its background and other things too. It simply wont draw border on top of the widget.
