QTableWidget - Change the row color


I'm trying to change the background color of a QTableWidget row. There are some others posts about the same thing but none of the given solutions worked for me.

  • With that solution, we are setting the background on an already existing item in the table to a light grey on the item at row 0, column 1:

    self.table.item(1,0).setBackground(QtGui.QColor(125,125,125))

It's working, but set background for the row with iterating needs more time if you have more then one table. I need a function to change the row background by passing only the row index!


Solution

  • There is no function that performs this task, but we can create it, for example:

    def setColortoRow(table, rowIndex, color):
        for j in range(table.columnCount()):
            table.item(rowIndex, j).setBackground(color)
