PySide2 and string based style for quick testing...

[Dariusz]

Hey

How can I properly do this ? :

    style = """
    {
        background-color : rgba(64,64,64,255);
    };
    
    QLabel { 
        color: rgb(50, 50, 50); 
        font-size: 11px; 
        background-color: rgba(188, 188, 188, 50); 
        border: 1px solid rgba(188, 188, 188, 250); 
    } ;
    
    QSpinBox 
    { 
        color: rgb(50, 50, 50); 
        font-size: 11px; 
        background-color: rgba(255, 188, 20, 50); 
    };
    """

    model = QGraphicsScene()

    view = QGraphicsView()
    view.setStyleSheet(style)

It seems to not work as is

TIA

Hi
Not even when " is on same line/ no newline?

s = """ this is a very
        long string if I had the
        energy to type more and more ..."""

or
 s = ("this is a very"
      "long string too"
      "for sure ..."
     )

@Dariusz
I cannot spot anything wrong in your multi-line string. However, what are the } ;s? I don't recall there being any semi-colons after the close curly braces, these are not programming statements. Are they interfering with the behaviour?

@JonB Old habbits of C++ coding I think.

I removed them, tried different options. My style still don't change :- (

Hi,

What exactly doesn't work ?

[Dariusz]

I had to replace this :

 style = """
    {
        background-color : rgba(64,64,64,255);
    };

With either:

 style = """
    *{
        background-color : rgba(64,64,64,255);
    };

Or

 style = """
    QWidget {
        background-color : rgba(64,64,64,255);
    };

And then it works :- )
