how to change style on a selected row

[Suzy Q]

Hello everybody,

When I select a row from a table I want that row to has only border. I already did this

QTableView::item:selected {
border: 2px solid red;
}

in a external .css file but it doesn't work. What do you suggest?

Hi
in what way " but it doesn't work."

You can try
setStyleSheet("QTableView {selection-background-color: transparent;}");

Im not sure what look you are after.

I want the selected row not to have a background color but red border. And by "it doesn't work" I mean that I don't get any border

Hmm. Strange.

QTableView::item:selected {
border: 2px solid red;
}
works for me..
