Hello Ed,
I'd say the style-sheet reference
is the best place to find information
about "what to modify" regarding the styling:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/stylesheet-reference.html
from which you can see a link to:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/stylesheet-examples.html#customizing-qtableview
and
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/stylesheet-examples.html#customizing-qheaderview
which highlights some of the options.
What you write there is QSS, which is similar to CSS,
maybe if you are not familiar to CSS it looks strange.
Were you referring to that with the C++ comment?
Cheers

It worked, colored both Horizontal and Vertical headers.
I would have made the assumption that the section keyword would refer to
a column/row of the header. Clearly it refers to the whole header. Where
would I find documentation regarding this? If I wanted just the
Horizontal header to be colored, for example. I did not see anything in
the QHeaderView or QAbstractItemView documentation for just the section
keyword.
Is there any doc on the syntactic sugar of passing in what appears (to
me) to be a C++ string?
Thanks,
Ed

Hello,
Nothing to worry about C++,
if you have a QTableView object, you can just use:
.setStyleSheet("QHeaderView::section{background-color: green;}")
on the object.
For example,
modifying the example:
https://code.qt.io/cgit/pyside/pyside-setup.git/tree/examples/widgets/itemviews/addressbook
<https://code.qt.io/cgit/pyside/pyside-setup.git/tree/examples/widgets/itemviews/addressbook>
Precisely the "addreswidget.py" file, adding the same line
under the declaration "tableView = QTableView()"
Produces:

PS: There is a small tutorial regarding stylesheet on the docs:
