How should i fill the background like the photoshop's edit window on QWidget? I mean draw the lightgray and white squre alternately. Please help me.

Do it in the paint event, and just draw a rectangles.

Also look into

QBrush::setStyle ( Qt::BrushStyle style )

Qt::TexturePattern

QBrush::setTexture ( const QPixmap & pixmap )

Thank you for your help. I have solved my problem like this
@
QSize sz(40,40);
QPixmap pix(sz);
QPainter p(&pix);
p.fillRect(0,0,sz.width()/2,sz.height()/2,Qt::lightGray);
p.fillRect(sz.width()/2,0,sz.width()/2,sz.height()/2,Qt::white);
p.fillRect(0,sz.height()/2,sz.width()/2,sz.height()/2,Qt::white);
p.fillRect(sz.width()/2,sz.height()/2,sz.width()/2,sz.height()/2,Qt::lightGray);
this->setBackgroundBrush(QBrush(pix));
