So I'm making an application using pyqt5 and what I'm trying to do is make a qpushbutton of a custom style sheet that changes color when your mouse hovers over it. I searched it up and found that in python the following code works to change the hovering settings:
button.setStyleSheet("QPushButton::hover"
"{"
"background-color : lightgreen;"
"}")
and when I tested it out, it worked, but then it removed my custom stylesheet.
button.setStyleSheet("background-color: #2B5DD1; color: #FFFFFF ; border-style: outset;
padding: 2px ; font: bold 20px ; border-width: 6px ; border-radius: 10px ; border-color: #2752B8;")
was my original code with just my style sheet which worked and then when I tried combining the two as follows:
to_meetings.setStyleSheet("background-color: #2B5DD1; color: #FFFFFF ; border-style: outset; padding: 2px ; font: bold 20px ; border-width: 6px ; border-radius: 10px ; border-color: #2752B8;"
"QPushButton::hover"
"{"
"background-color: #112452;"
"}")
It ran just fine, but didn't show the hover settings and instead just showed my custom stylesheet. Any idea on how to incorporate a custom stylesheet as well as hover settings?
Just as you defined the QPushButton style with the hover
pseudo-state, you can define it for the regular state.
QPushButton {
background-color: #2B5DD1;
color: #FFFFFF;
border-style: outset;
padding: 2px;
font: bold 20px;
border-width: 6px;
border-radius: 10px;
border-color: #2752B8;
}
QPushButton:hover {
background-color: lightgreen;
}
