How to apply style sheet to nested properties?

[Thinium]

If we want the property to apply only to one specific instance, we can specify the object name in the style sheet.

// the style sheet will only apply to the object called evilButton

QPushButton#evilButton { background-color: red }

What if I want the following property to also be used by a specific object? I noticed that if I wrote QScrollBar#evilScroller:vertical, the style isn't applied at all.

QScrollBar:vertical{
      background:palette(base);
      border-top-right-radius:2px;
      border-bottom-right-radius:2px;
      width:16px;
      margin:0px;
    }

You have a QScrollBar named "evilButton"?

@Bonnie hahaha! Nope, sorry it's a bad example. I renamed it now. But I realize that the scrollers are automatically created by QGraphicScene and I've only set the window's objectName but not the scroller's object name. I don't know if I can actually set the scrollers' object names manually as QGraphicScene doesn't seem to have a function to access it's scrollers.

That's what I think.
We usually don't create a QScrollBar. They come with other container widgets.
So you probably did not use the right object name.
If it really has a object name of "evilScroller", I think the style sheet should work.

Hi
I assume you mean on QGraphicsView as QGraphicScene is nonvisual so I will be hugely surprised if it has scrollbars :)

In any case, if i set on the view, its used when scrollbar shows up
