    I gave a Window some StyleSheet in order to have rounded corners using this block of code:
    *{
    background: transparent;
    }
    QWidget{
    background-color:qlineargradient(spread:pad, x1:1, y1:0.323, x2:1, y2:1, stop:0 rgba(80, 80, 80, 255), stop:1 rgba(41, 41, 41, 255));
    border: 2px solid rgb(153, 153, 153);
    border-radius: 20px;
    color:white;
    }
    the widget is appearing well but the window doesn't take the transparency I gave in order to get rid of pointy corners...
    On windows this code worked

      Hi
      Your windows manager might not support it.
      What linux distro and manager are you using ?
