QTableWidget - How to set background-color with widget

[fgdevel]

@SGaist

yes of course :

[...]
tableItem = new QTableWidgetItem("");
tableItem->setFlags(tableItem->flags() & ~(Qt::ItemIsEditable));
//Add Table items here With Default Cell Texts
ui->tableWidget->setItem(y,0,new QTableWidgetItem(""));
ui->tableWidget->setItem(y,1,tableItem);
ui->tableWidget->setItem(y,2,new QTableWidgetItem(""));
ui->tableWidget->setCellWidget(y,3,new QCheckBox(""));
ui->tableWidget->setCellWidget(y,4,new QCheckBox(""));
ui->tableWidget->setCellWidget(y,5,new QCheckBox(""));
[...]

The background-color works only for "QTableWidgetItem" cells (without widget)

[SGaist]

When you set a cell widget you don't see the item underneath (and you don't have any under), you have to set the background on the widget itself.

@SGaist

is there any global function to set the background-color ? (which works with or without widget...) ?

[SGaist]

You can try by modifying the palette of the application.

@SGaist

I want to modify a specific TableWidget and not all grids or all widget contained in the application...Have you an example ?

[SGaist]

You want to modify only that widget and all its children ?

[fgdevel]

@SGaist

I want to modify all cells of QTableWidget, several cells contain QTableWidgetItem, several cells contain QCheckbox for example

[SGaist]

Then you can write the style sheet so that it applies to both your QTableWidget and its children widgets

[fgdevel]

@SGaist

It seems to work on QTableWidget but not on children widgets when I set the style sheet

[fgdevel]

I have resolved my problem with :

ui->tableWidget->item(i,j)->setBackground(Qt::gray);
