i want to create play, pause and stop buttons as we get in Windows media player.
i will be creating separate buttons for play and pause.
i want their representation to match with those in Windows media player.
is it possible using QT?

As wysota said, use QToolButton

and use the function void setIcon ( const QIcon & icon ) of QToolButton .

It is very much possible in Qt. From what I understood, you are looking for a button that can has a pixmap - the Normal one, and upon mouse hover you want to change it to a Hover pixmap. and then upon pressing the pressedPixmap. Moreover The pixmap can have transparency/mask and the masked portion has to be hidden. Is this your requirement ?

AFAIK, there is no widget that readily gives you this option. But you can subclass QButton to create a skinned button. I have seen one such in codeskipper.com. You can have a look at it

Thanks.....

how can i disable the Qtoolbutton?
If i click on the pixmap for play button then i need to show that the same play button is disabled. Do i need to replace the pixmap for that tool button or is there any other way??
