Unsolved What is the alternate for StyleSheet to set the background and bottom border of a custom widget derived from the QWidget?
-
I Have a custom widget derived from QWidget
it contain two labels. Now I want to fill the background of the Custom widget ( which include the child widget) with red and set the bottom border with 2px thickness and color dark red. I dont want to use stylesheet, since its organization policy to rely less on style sheet.
What i tried?
I override the paintevent and have made use of the below code to fill the rectangle
QPainter painter(this);
painter.fillRect(rect(), QColor(170,30,330));this worked for me. I am still in a doubt how to set the border width and color.

Hi
You can look how QFrame does.void QFrame::drawFrame(QPainter *p) { QStyleOptionFrame opt; initStyleOption(&opt); style()->drawControl(QStyle::CE_ShapedFrame, &opt, p, this); }
However, it would be easier to just inherit from QFrame instead so you can just set properties and
not values in QStyleOptionFrame.
