How to remove focus rectangle on QListView and similar using QStyledItemDelegate with style sheets?
-
Did you take a look at the "style sheet example for customizing QListView":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/stylesheet-examples.html#customizing-qlistview ?
-
To make things clear: the focus rectangle is when you select an item or hover it ? Both ?
-
Can you give a specific example of the stylesheet that doesn't work?
I tried this with the delegate:
@
void paint(QPainter *painter, const QStyleOptionViewItem &option, const QModelIndex &index) const
{
QStyleOptionViewItem option2 = option;
option2.state = option.state & (~QStyle::State_HasFocus);
QStyledItemDelegate::paint(painter, option2, index);
}
@
and it doesn't affect stylesheets at all, i.e. thay still work as expected. For example this
@
listWidget->setStyleSheet("QListView::item:selected { color: red; background-color: yellow; }");
@
still colors the selected items.Btw. the focus rectangle, ugly as it may be, is an important usability feature. Think twice before removing it.

It's exactly the active item after selecting it.By code you can get hell of it by using:
[code]setFocusPolicy(Qt::NoFocus);[/code]But this solution isn't practical because you've to set it for each widget in the GUI; For that I prefer to use stylesheet instead.

I could disable focus rect by adding this line to my .qss file:
*{outline: none;}
At least it worked for all buttons in the app. -

I'm afraid there is no way of getting rid of this focus rect through the style sheet. Howewer, you can implement your own QStyle (or use QProxyStyle) like this:
@
#include <QApplication>
#include <QProxyStyle>
#include "MyMainWindow.h"
class MyProxyStyle : public QProxyStyle
{
public:
virtual void drawPrimitive(PrimitiveElement element, const QStyleOption * option,
QPainter * painter, const QWidget * widget = 0) const
{
if (PE_FrameFocusRect == element)
{
/// do not draw focus rectangle
}
else
{
QProxyStyle::drawPrimitive(element, option,painter, widget);
}
}
};int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
a.setStyle(new MyProxyStyle);
MyMainWindow mw;
mw.resize(700, 800);
mw.show();
}
@
Btw, this is slightly modified vesrion of what you can find in Qt Assistant.
This worked for my test app (Qt5.1.1) with QListView and QListWidget. -

For that we files a suggestion to add this feature.[quote]Howewer, you can implement your own QStyle (or use QProxyStyle)[/quote]
Actually it really the hard way to do it (although it fix it) -
[quote author="blueshift" date="1379779695"]Hi glowc,
You must use @QListView
{
outline: none;
}@[/quote]I think this is the answer of the question.
It doesn't behave just like setFocusPolicy but that's what glowck wants.
glowck(and I) just want to remove unnecessary ugly rectangle(appearance) because it's replaced by color, image or something. If it behaves like setFocusPolicy I can't select in the list.
Thanks blueshift, it solved my problem.
