      Hi,

      IIRC, setAttribute(Qt::WA_TranslucentBackground); is what you are looking for.

                Dont set directly on LineEdit
                Set on its parent. (dialog/mainwind)
                Then it works.
                Or set as no Type
                Try right click LineEdit, change stylesheet, and paste
                background:transparent;
                directly also works.

                For some reason, i have yet to learn, setting
                QLineEdit
                {
                background:transparent;
                }
                directly on Edit. Do not work. (for me).
                Only via parent.

                        ok, u must override it from the other stylesheet then ?
                        Else i dont know.

                        Is that the sample ?
                        No changes, just run it?
                        If yes, then what platform you are on, might not support it or the
                        Qt version you are using is having a bug on that platform.

                            ok. I have had issue on mint with xfce4.
                            Some stuff that worked in Kubuntu and windows did render differently on mint.
                            That was also 5.5.
                            Not sure if bug or what.

                            Could you test on other windows manager?

                                Super if possible.
                                I love mint + xfce4 but i did have some issues with rendering and dialogs
                                that fall behind parent.

                                So test transparent on other setup if u can and see if that is different :)
