Change QPushButton opacity on hover and pressed states.

[l000p]

Well the title it's self explanatory. I am trying to achieve those results for buttons that are not created with the designer. They are generated via code.
That behavior is most likely achievable true QSS - therefor how to set the style sheet most efficiently.
What I am thinking of is setStyleSheet(blablalba) in the constructor - is there any way better than that?
Can someone better than me with QSS (obviously) help me with the syntax ?
Cheers.

as you suggested using setStyleSheet(blablalba) in the constructor is totally fine

@gde23 Any help with the states syntax ?

[gde23]

e.g.

QPushButton:
{ 
    background: rgba(255, 0, 125, 125);
}
QPushButton:hover 
{
    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 125);
}

or in general take a look at the examples:

@gde23 Thank you!
Your comment led me to results. Thank you !

QPushButton
{

	background-color: rgba(0, 172, 252, 30);

	border:0px solid rgb(0,175,252);
	border-style: outset;
	border-width: 1px;
	margin-bottom: 1px;
}
QPushButton:hover
{
	background-color: rgba(0, 172, 252, 50);
}

QPushButton:pressed
{  
	background-color: rgba(0, 120, 252, 150);
    border-style: inset;
    border-width: 2px;

}

During the process I've learned that you can also set border-image for each state of the button. So any rater complex design can be achieved true Photoshop as QSS supports .png with alpha.

One more thing I am concerned right now and it's if I am able to support custom button shapes let's say I'll want my button to appear as an image of a house, but only be able to click inside the image area.

@Kaguro

Solution to what problem exactly? The opacity? The hover?

@Pl45m4
Yes the hover! I would like to only activate the button events when the cursor above the picture. So i would like the borders of the button becomes the png picture border! Thanks for your help!
