Problem with QCheckBox

[Zunneh]

Hi guys, i'm working in a project and i find a problem with the widget QCheckBox
i want to setStyleSheet in the QCheckBox ( color ) and in the same time i want to allign my check in center, but the problem is i can't do this 2 options in the same time ?

  QCheckBox *check=new QCheckBox(this);	
  check->setStyleSheet("QWidget {background-color:#0000FF;color:white;}");
  check->setStyleSheet("margin-left:50%; margin-right:50%;}");

this 2 option does not work together, i tried

     check->setStyleSheet("QWidget {background-color:#0000FF;color:white;margin-left:50%;margin-right:50%;}");

and it didn't work also, can someone help me please ? thanks

hi
Seems to work fine for me with
check->setStyleSheet("QWidget {background-color:#0000FF;color:white;margin-left:50%;margin-right:50%;}");

What are you seeing since you say its not working?

@mrjj the QCheckBox is not in the center, only the color work, this is my problem

Hi
but

check->setStyleSheet("margin-left:50%; margin-right:50%;}");

alone do net center checkmark anyway ?

So is Question how to center checkbox with stylesheet ?

[Zunneh]

yeah, i tried to set only color alone , it works

setStyleSheet("QWidget {background-color:#0000FF;color:white};

i tried to set in the center alone , it works

setStyleSheet("margin-left:50%; margin-right:50%;}");

but when i tried the two options in the same time, only one works (the color) in your exemple
So my is Question how to center checkbox with stylesheet

@Zunneh Hi,

50%doesn't work in stylesheet (except in specific case) so it takes it as 50px.
Note also that background is hidden by the margins.

@mrjj You could upvote yourslef because you gave me the right way to look https://forum.qt.io/topic/90556/unexpected-behavior-using-percentage-in-stylesheet/2 :)

@Gojir4 so do you have solution for me ?

[Gojir4]

@Zunneh Actually the only solution I have in mind is wrapping combo box in a widget with blue background, and center the combo box inside the widget using spacer items
