Setting Stylesheet for QDockWindow titlebar

Perdrix

I've set a stylesheet on the title bar of a QDockWidget thus:

QDockWidget::title {background: qlineargradient(spread:pad, x1:0, y1:0, x2:1, y2:0, stop:0 rgba(138, 185, 242, 0), stop:1 rgba(138, 185, 242, 255))}

When I float it (at least in Qt Designer preview) the title bar background reverts to boring plain blue.

Surely if I set a stylesheet, it should stick?

The answer might be to use QDockWindow::setTitleBarWidget?

Is there any sample code around for using that? Can I simply use a QLabel created thus:

		QLabel* dockTitle{ new QLabel(this) };
		QSize size{ 625, 25 };
		dockTitle->setObjectName("dockTitle");
		dockTitle->setMinimumSize(size);
		dockTitle->resize(size);
		dockTitle->setStyleSheet(QString::fromUtf8(
			"background: qlineargradient(spread:pad, x1:0, y1:0, x2:1, y2:0, "
			"stop:0 rgba(138, 185, 242, 0), stop:1 rgba(138, 185, 242, 255))"));
		QString	text{ tr("Light Frames: %1      -      Dark Frames: %2      -      Flat Frames: %3      -   Dark Flat Frames: %4   -      Offset/Bias Frames: %5",
			"IDS_LISTINFO")
			.arg(0)
			.arg(0)
			.arg(0)
			.arg(0)
			.arg(0)
		};
		dockTitle->setText(text);

Thanks again, D.
