Styling a specific button in Qt Installer

Marko Stanke

So the way to style buttons is using the style.qss. And in my case I do it like this

QPushButton {
    background-color: rgb(169, 143, 79);
    color: white;
    border-radius: 4px;
    padding: 5.5px 26px;
    font-size: 8px;
}

Which is fine. But I can't manage to change a specific button, for example the "Next" button. How could you have one style for all buttons and another for the "Next" button?

Hi,

I would check if the button has an object name associated to it, you would then be able to use it as a selector for the stylesheet. See here.

@SGaist I tried already a few variations of

QPushButton#okButton { color: gray }

like

QPushButton#nextButton { color: gray }
QPushButton#NextButton { color: gray }
QPushButton#continueButton { color: gray }

But the docs do not specify how those built-in buttons in the Qt Installer are named.

You should rather check the code of the installer framework, it will be faster.
