Setting QProxyStyle on TabBar, overrides Palette

[BDC_Patrick]

@SGaist Yes
The Tabs are drawn Properly, when not doing the QProxyStyle.
But.. vertical Text..

[SGaist]

I did not meant to disable the style, just not override drawControl.

[BDC_Patrick]

@SGaist But.. the rotation of the TabBar Labels is done in drawControl...
Without it, the Labels are vertical again.. But still white Light-Fusion color Palette..

I updated the Startpost with an Image of the problem..

[BDC_Patrick]

I do still stuck on that Task..
:(

[SGaist]

Which version of Qt are you using ?
On which OS ?
Are you using a specific style like fusion ?

[BDC_Patrick]

@SGaist
Current QT is 5.15.2
OS is Windows
Preferred Style is fusion with changing Palettes
Language is Cpp (11+)
IDE: CLion

I´m currently working with the workaround, to spawn multiple buttons in a vertical Box..
Not really beautiful..

So.. if you know help for a TabBar.. it would be nice ^^

Can you provide a complete minimal example that triggers that behavior ? That way everybody can use the same code to see the issue.

Calling the Widget inside my MainWindow, results in:

Looks likes there might be a bug that has crept in. I have a related but different issue with the macOS style.
