Set Background Colour of addMenu item

[notshure]

Hi, using the following code, I am unable to set the background colour for a menubar item.

@QMenu *configure = menuBar->addMenu(tr("&Configure"));@

I am able to set the colour for everything else simply by using qApp->setStyleSheet(...) but I have been unsuccessful in getting the background for the menu to change. I'm guessing that since &Configure is a string it needs to be done is a completely different way...

Thanks for any help!

Eehm... what?

Set your stylesheets using setStyleSheet to any QWidget, i.e.:
@
MyWindow::MyWindow(QWidget* parent = 0)
: QWidget(parent)
{
setStyleSheet("QMenu { }"); // this will set up style for every item
// this will set up style only for QMenu, which has set up
// the object name to "objectName" using
// QMenu->setObjectName(...);
setStyleSheet("QMenu#objectName { ... }");
}
