[SOLVED] Apply a QGraphicsEffect on a scrollbar

[amonR]

Hi everyone,
I would like to apply a blur-effect on a QScrollBar, is that possible?

[raven-worx]

Did you fail using it? Or was this just a question instead of trying it within 30 secs?

Hi raven, thanks for replying.
I'm asking because I really don't know if it is possible. I tried a code but only managed to get the all QScrollErea blured and not just the QscrollBar. The single way I know to custumize a scrollbar is by using the stylesheet. However I do not know how to apply the effect through it. An idea?

what did you try?
@
scrollAreaAbstract->verticalScrollBar()->setGraphicsEffect( new QGraphicsBlurEffect(...) );
@

I tried this:
@
QScrollArea *scrolls = new QScrollArea;
QGraphicsBlurEffect *blureffect = new QGraphicsBlurEffect;
scrolls->setGraphicsEffect(blureffect);
@
As I said, this code gives me the whole widget blured, not just the scrollbar.

Concerning your code I tried it and got an error on "scrollAreaAbstract".

Thanks a lot Raven, finally it works.
I used your code this way:
@
QScrollArea *scrolls = new QScrollArea;
QGraphicsBlurEffect *blureffect = new QGraphicsBlurEffect;
scrolls->horizontalScrollBar()->setGraphicsEffect(blureffect);
