set QProgressDialog. progress indicator color?

how to set QProgressDialog. progress indicator color?

Do you mean the progress bar on the QProgressDialog? If so, you can set its palette Highlight color to the color you want.

Maybe QProgressDialog constructs the progress bar with a default bar. To replace it just create a new QProgressBar* , change its color and replace it with setBar ( QProgressBar * bar )

Code:

---

QProgressBar * myBar = new QProgressBar(this);
 
QPalette palette1;
        QBrush brush2(QColor(192, 0, 0, 255)); //Some red color
        brush2.setStyle(Qt::SolidPattern);
        palette1.setBrush(QPalette::Active, QPalette::Highlight, brush2);
        palette1.setBrush(QPalette::Inactive, QPalette::Highlight, brush2);
        QBrush brush3(QColor(204, 199, 197, 255));
        brush3.setStyle(Qt::SolidPattern);
        palette1.setBrush(QPalette::Disabled, QPalette::Highlight, brush3);
        myBar->setPalette(palette1);
 
MyProgressDialog.setBar(myBar);

You can use a style sheet

Carlos, I tried what you suggested in a class that is derived from QProgressBar. This is my code:

Code:

---

void MyProgressBar::onStarted()
{
    setFormat(tr("Preparing"));
 
    QPalette p = this->palette();
    QBrush greenBrush(QColor(0, 255, 0, 255));
    greenBrush.setStyle(Qt::SolidPattern);
    p.setBrush(QPalette::Active, QPalette::Highlight, greenBrush);
    p.setBrush(QPalette::Inactive, QPalette::Highlight, greenBrush);
    this->setPalette(p);
}

But the color doesn't change. Maybe you can spot my mistake?
