style sheets select all except something

[codeslicer]

Alright, I have an application in which I use style sheets. Now I have a problem. In my application, I use this:



* {
background-color: black;
}


which sets the background color of all widgets black. Unfortunately though, the menu that appears by right-clicking on an object such as QLineEdit is also black. I do not want this behavior. I know that I can use:



QMenu {
background-color: somedifferentcolor;
}


but that wouldn't be really platform/theme independent, as I want the default style for the menu to remain intact. In CCS3, there is the not() selector, which should be used like this:



*:not(QMenu) {
background-color: black;
}


but Qt doesn't support this. Is there any way in which I can restore the QMenu's default colors or just omit it in the unary selector using Qt Style Sheets?

Thanks!

Bump...

Anyone?

I don't know if it works but you may try:
* { background-color: black; }
QMenu { background-color: inherit; }

It didn't work, thanks for helping though :)

I don't have that many widgets that I require using a unary selector (*), so I'll just implicately select which ones I want.

Also, there is a bug in the forum software. This is how to reproduce it:

1.) Make sure you aren't logged in.
2.) Go to a thread and click reply.
3.) Login.
4.) You are redirected to a bad url, ie qtcentre.org/forum//forum//forum/newreply.php, which can't be found.

Not sure where to leave these bugs, but here it is...

Yes, we're aware of the bug. But it's either answering questions or fixing bugs, so... bugs are waiting for better days :)
