    Default Remove Borders around a QLabel

    I have added one qlabel in my application's statusbar . And now I have been trying to remove the borders around the QLabel.

    Qt Code:
    1. label->setFrameShape(QFrame::HLine);
    2. label->setFrameStyle(QFrame::NoFrame);
    3. // label->setLineWidth(0);
    4. //label->setMidLineWidth(0);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    I tried everything above, none of them work, any help is appreciated.

    You can define a stylesheet for the label:
    Qt Code:
    1. label->setStyleSheet("border: 0px;");
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    or for the parent QWidget:
    Qt Code:
    1. this->setStyleSheet("QLabel { border: 0px; }");
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    More about that, here: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/sty...-examples.html

    it may work.

    Qt Code:
    1. label->setContentsMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

    i got the solution

    we can do this with Style sheets. we probably have a line like this Application app(argc, argv);

    underneath that, add one like this: app.setStyleSheet("QStatusBar::item { border: 0px solid black }; ");

    and those pesky boxes will be gone.
