<![CDATA[Increase size of QFIleDIalog?]]>gps_file = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this, tr("Open File"),
"/home/apaul/Downloads", tr("GPS-Files (*.txt)"),0,QFileDialog::DontUseNativeDialog);

When I use this statement, is there some way to increase font size of the text that appears in the FIle DIalog?

but if you apply a style sheet to the parent, it does apply to it too
like

 this->setStyleSheet("QTreeView {font: 16pt \"Arial\";}")

there "this" is the same this as you use in the call
QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this, ......

since this also affects the font size of the parent's other QTreeView ,
it maybe be a good idea to restore font size after/restore stylesheet or
find out the exact name of the sub control inside the QFileDialog and target that by name.
