[PyQt] qdialog and QLinearGradient shows dark gray
I'm having a QLinearGradient that doesn't work correctly on ubuntu with Qt
4.6.2 and PyQt 4.7.2. I believe these are the standard ubuntu 10.04 versions.
I'm new to Qt css, but this is working on windows so I believe my css is
valid. If I add this line, I get nothing but a dark background which is not
quite black.
self.setStyleSheet( "QDialog {background-color: QLinearGradient(x1: 0, y1:
0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #f6f7fa, stop: 1 #dadbde);}")
If I replace the above line with
self.setStyleSheet( "QDialog {background-color: GREEN}")
I get a charming (??!! not) bright green background as I'd expect. The same
applies to message boxes with this dialog as parent due to the inheritance of
style sheets (which is correct).
Is this a bug in my specific versions? What else can I try to figure out how
to fix the problem?

I concur that the links don't work on ubuntu 10.04 with qt 4.6.2 in a PyQt application. They do work in the kmail kde about box. It is also working on my windows install, but I forget the exact versions and am in linux at the moment. -- Joel ___ PyQt mailing listPyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt

The problem occurs with KDE 4 on Kubuntu (10.10, if I remember correctly). On the other hand, on KDE 3 and Windows, it apparently works fine. It might be worth asking about the issue on a KDE or Kubuntu mailing list. David ___ PyQt mailing listPyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt

Since you didn't told us your OS/versions, I will leave it up to you to find out mine. Hehe.

Where are they found? > Can one create a new one from scratch? or a derivative of the above? You're mixing color schemes and styles here. Since some QStyles are loaded as a plugin, Phil doesn't support QStyle subclassing at all. To support this, an auxilliary sip module needs to be created, that copes with the nature of plugins. Please refer to a discussion of mine with Phil half a year ago on this list. > Are these "themes" related to or the same as "styleSheets" ? Well, themes derive from QStyle and stylesheets manipulate QStyle attributes. Hth, Pete ___ PyQt mailing listPyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
