    Why exactly did you create a custom RadioButton derived from QAbstractButton?

    Well. it's custom.
    Because i don't want standard widget appearance and also implemented some animation

    enter image description here

    And what types of css properties do you want to support?

    color, opacity , ... as i said

      QSS is capable of setting properties. So before starting to parse the stylesheet code i suggest you use simply QProperties.

      See this post of mine for setting basic data types via QSS.

        It's other question :) related to this.

        for customized widgets , can't we use like this ?

        setObjectname("SomeName");

        and

        #SomeName ::xxxx
        {}

          I don't know if the space between the id- and pseudo-element selector is intentional in your example? It should work without the space (if the widget with the object name supports the pseudo-element of course). With the space it wont work.

          Qt docs say:

          Sub-controls are always positioned with respect to another element - a reference element. This reference element could be the widget or another Sub-control.

            yeah, the space is just by mistakenly. Sorry. It's clear.

                first of all you didn't read the post carefully enough ;)

                Sample { color: rgb(47, 169, 226); }
                

                should be

                Sample { qproperty-color: rgb(47, 169, 226); }
                

                Using the color QSS-property is still possible, but then you need to retrieve it from the widget's palette:

                widget->palette().color( QPalette::Text );

                  Ok. this isn't a good approach for custom widgets for example i need more than one color or opacity for painting
                  I think i should go for hard parsing stuff !
                  Could i use qcssparser_p.h for retrieving values ?

                    Then create a property for each state/type.

                      First retrieving the values not working for above example :
                      If i use qdebug

                      qDebug() << this->palette().color(QPalette::Text).red() 
                      			<< this->palette().color(QPalette::Text).green() 
                      			<< this->palette().color(QPalette::Text).blue();
                      

                      I get rbg -> 0 0 0 while i'm using rgb-> 47, 169, 226

                      Secound if we have two colors :
                      Q_PROPERTY(QColor color-on READ color-on WRITE setColor-on DESIGNABLE true);
                      Q_PROPERTY(QColor color-off READ color-off WRITE setColor-off DESIGNABLE true);
                      How get each color in class ?
                      is there a direct access to these properties like color-on() ?
                      or when we declare opacity property like :
                      Q_PROPERTY(float opacity-on READ opacity-on WRITE setOpacity-on DESIGNABLE true);
                      How access this propertty value ?

                        what do you mean how should you access these values?!
                        You specified a getter method in the property definition. You've already shown how to do in an example of yours before?!

                          Oh..
                          Sorry i think that was qt-bug (getter return invalid) but now it's work

                          For last question !
                          Could i use qcssparser_p.h for retrieving values for my purpose ? (i'm a lover of parsing :) )
                          Thanks.
