    Default Handling mouse over event for QListWidget

    Hi,
    I am using QT 4.4 on windows XP. I want to handle the mouse over evnt on a QListWidget. I have QStringList added to my widget. This QStringList comprises of strings (each has 3-4 lines). I want to change the background of the text (as if to highlight or focus the same), one line at a time, as and when my mouse moves over the same.

    Please help me with any snippet that may solve the purpose.

    you need to reimplement mouseMoveEvent().
    There you can access the list item (QListWidgetItem) and manipulate its background.

    Do you write clean code? - if you are TDD'ing then maybe, if not, your not writing clean code.

    Or you can use stylesheet instead
