[Solved] How to override a child QWidget's background colour?

[JKSH]

Hi all,

I'm trying to make my QLCDNumber change its background colour according to its value.
@
void ParentWidget::updateLcd(int value)
{
QPalette p;

if (value > 10)
    p.setColor(QPalette::Window, QColor("red"));
else
    p.setColor(QPalette::Window, QColor("green"));

childLcd->setPalette(p);
childLcd->display(value);

}
@

This works if the QLCDNumber is created as a top-level widget, but not if it's made a child of ParentWidget -- it seems to be forced to use its parent's palette.

What options do I have?

I've also tried childLcd->setPalette(Qt::red) -- that does work, but it only colours the borders, not the whole background.

Ah, apparently I need to call
@
childLcd->setAutoFillBackground(true)
@

Works now!
