The QAbstractItemModel' data method failed to overwrite background

I have a QTreeView which has a stylesheet applied to items with "QTreeView::item{background-color:#F7F7F7}". The view has a custom model and in the data method, I change the background of some specific cells like this :

Code:

---

if (index.column() == 3 && role == Qt::BackgroundColorRole)
{
    return QColor("#F4FF81");
}

---

But this is not working to overwrite the value set in stylesheet. Is there anyone who can tell me what I miss? Thanks!!!

Stylesheets seem to override and ignore the formatting data coming from the model. See this thread for some suggestions and details:

https://forum.qt.io/topic/95940/mode...style-sheet/11

Either just extend the model to return the other color for the other columns or is a QIdentityProxyModel to supply the "fall back" background color for cells for which the original model didn't provide any.

Thanks a lot. I would try
