Why QStyle dosen't changes the standard font?

Why don't you look at their sources? They probably use the default font for your system.

Yes wysota that's exactly what they do and that's exactly the problem. I think that each style sould has assciated its own font style like seem in the docs... Why doesn't?

Because they were probably taken on different platforms. If you associated a particular font with each style, what would happen if that exact font was not available on the system? You couldn't use that style there.

Sounds a bit harsh wysota. I think that the style could check if the font is present on the system or something. If don't, set the default font...

Look at it a different way. When I set the fonts for my system as a whole, I expect ALL applications to abide by it. If I want a special font for a particular application, I can (under Unix at least) use the -font command line option.
