[SOLVED] Could not parse stylesheet of object 0x8046944

rafael

how do i change the fonts of a qfiledialog? All the letters on my machine are really small.

i added this in the constructor of my main window.

'QFontDatabase fontDB;
fontDB.addApplicationFont(":/qt/lib/fonts/DejaVuSans.ttf");'

i call this function when i click a button to open a file dialog box.

' QFileDialog fd;
fd.setStyleSheet("* {font-family: DejaVuSans;font-style: normal;font-size: 120pt;font-weight: bold;};");

QString directory = fd.getExistingDirectory(this,
                              tr("Find Files"), QDir::currentPath());

   if (!directory.isEmpty()) {
       if (ui->lineEdit->text() == "-1")
       {

       }
   }'

i get a message saying Could not parse stylesheet of object 0x8046944

Remove the last semicolon
fd.setStyleSheet("* {font-family: DejaVuSans;font-style: normal;font-size: 120pt;font-weight: bold;}");

BTW, of you need only to change the Font you can use QWidget::setFont()

thanks that removed the message but it doesn't seem to apply the changes.

this is what my file dialog looks like.

i am running qnx6.6.0 on virtual box
i have a windows host

that is my main window i managed to modify the text box and button

http://community.qnx.com/sf/sfmain/do/downloadAttachment/projects.qt/discussion.general.topc26119/post113604?id=atch15719

the button calls a filedialog box

Hi,

sorry I have no experience on QNX.
Could you please post your code? I don't think is relevant but try to remove the QFontDatabase part

rafael

thanks the problem has been resolved.
style sheets have been applied correctly i just couldn't see it because i was using the wrong settings.
I entered the screen resolution instead of physical dimensions when i was configuring my setup.

rafael

You should have a tool box with that option

mmmm, seems available only for admins!!

So you could add a prefix [SOLVED] to the title
