Re: Colored messages in QStatusBar
You could try "<font color='red'>%1</font>" or using "#ff0000" as the color.
Maybe it just doesn't do the paragraph styling.
For styleshee it might be possible to not make it apply to any children.
Or you could specifically set the normal application palette on all widgets that you add but have a special palette on the statusbar that changes foreground color as needed.

Re: Colored messages in QStatusBar
Thanks anda_skoa,
unfortunately that does not work.
Apparently showMessage() completely ignores rich text. I see all tags (i.e.: "<html><head/><body><whatever>...") printed as-is in status line.
The only solution I've found so far is to subclass StatusBar and reimplement showMessage() modifying palette with each call.
Is it really necessary to do such an intrusive modification "just" to have colored messages?
