How to reproduce something like that in Qt?

Self explanatory title (how would that work in a button for example?)

Hi,

From a quick look, likely with QML and the QtQuick related modules.

@SGaist I forgot to mention: without QML.

Any other constraints ?

@SGaist It's just for sake of curiosity to know if it's possible or just an illusion. I know that in QML it would be easier, but wondering if it was possible to do without it.

You can do custom painting with your widget, use the animation framework, the graphics view framework, OpenGL etc.
