setStyleSheet doesnt work on raspberry pi

Hi to everyone,

i developing simple screen desing but i have a problem. I write on my desktop that base linux ubuntu 16.04 and pycharm editor, when i execute code everything awesome. But i try to run on raspberry pi same code, button.setStyleSheet("background-color: red") doesnt work. Moreover i dont get any eror,it comes screen but when i clicked to button, dont change button background color.

i want to change button background color when i clicked to button. This code running on my desktop.


def initUI(self):
self.btn.setToolTip('Buton1 islemleri') # Buton aciklamasini gosteriyor,uzerine gelindiginde.
self.btn.resize(120,70) # BOYUTLANDIRMA
self.btn.move(50, 50) # KONUMLANDIRMA
self.btn.clicked.connect(self.buton1_event) # button1 cikis olayi

def Ac(self,Cpin):
GPIO.output(Cpin,GPIO.HIGH)
def Kapat(self,Cpin):
GPIO.output(Cpin,GPIO.LOW)


# --------------Button1 Tiklama Olayi ------------------
def buton1_event(self):
if self.lcd1Bool == True:
self.lcd1.display(1)
self.Ac(kapaliCikis)
self.btn.setStyleSheet("background-color: yellow") # this line doesnt work !!!
self.lcd1Bool = False
else:
self.lcd1.display(0)
self.Kapat(kapaliCikis)
self.btn.setStyleSheet("background-color: #257c07") # this line doesnt work !!!
self.lcd1Bool = True

The ability to set background colors for buttons is OS dependent. If you are using Raspbian, you should do some searching to see if that OS allows such changes. I know that on Windows, it takes a lot of work to dynamically change background colors for buttons. You can find a lot of posts here concerning that.

Thank you for quickly reply, i will change rasp's operating system with ubuntu 18.04

It is not so much operating system specific as it is style specific.

Make sure you run the same widget style on both platforms, e.g. Qt's default style "Fusion"

Instead of using a style sheet, can you try changing the color using the QPalette? In C++, this would be:

Code:

---

QPalette pal = button.palette();
pal.setColor( QPalette::Window, QColor( "yellow" ) );
button.setPalette( pal );

---

If this works, it might indicate that style sheets are not fully implemented on your RasPi's version of Qt. If it doesn't work, then it could be something to do with the default style as anda_skoa suggests.

Thank you for your reply

I dont solve this problem, i used text label instead of button. Thats enough for me..
