    I'm trying to style a QSpinBox with QSS and when I apply any style to the buttons, the arrows disappear, and reappear just as a horizontal line when I style them specifically. Here is a screenshot of the result: https://i.imgur.com/YinYwb6.png

    Is there a way to keep the arrow like in the non-styled button on top?

    QSpinBox {
    background-color: white;
    border: 1px solid rgba(160, 165, 182, 1);
    padding: 3px;
    }

    QSpinBox::down-button {
    background-color: rgba(211, 211, 253, 1);
    border: 1px solid rgba(160, 165, 182, 1);
    padding: 3px;
    }

    QSpinBox::down-arrow {
    background: red;
    }

      Hi,

      IIRC, these are note lines but a + and a -. AFAIK, you have to provide the arrows yourself like shown in the example
