Can't resize QSplitter's children after customization

Byron Lai

The handle doesn't show up when the mouse cursor hovers over the splitter after I apply the following stylesheet

@QSplitter::handle {
color: rgb(145, 145, 145);
width: 1px;
}@

Hi Byron,

it is only 1 pixel width, that is not much.

I assume you just don't see it, as it is too small.

Thanks Gerolf
There is a mistake in my original stylesheet
Now I can resize the splitter's children
It should be
@QSplitter::handle:vertical {
color: rgb(145, 145, 145);
height: 1px;
}@
But setting color to rgb(145, 145, 145) doesn't change the splitter's appearance
Is subclassing QSplitter and QSplitterHandlethe the only way to change the splitter's appearance to a plain straight line?

you could try background instead of color. color is typically used for foreground. But I never tried this.

Hi...
I am also facing similar problem...like this..
I have set the stylesheet of my QSplitter as

@
parentsplitter->setStyleSheet("QSplitter { border-color: rgb(255, 0, 0); color: rgb(145, 145, 145); height: 5px;background-color: rgb(225,230,234); }");

But i can see only the background color of my QSplitter is getting changed, but i want to change my border color of QSplitter from my main window..

Please help me on this..
