Custom tooltips (QTJambi)

[Affinity]

Hi guys, I'm in the middle of programming a project for school based on the world of warcraft talent calculator. I'm having a problem with tooltips though. I can't seem to get tooltips styles to work at all. I can set the text properly, but actually styling them does not work. What I want is a black window much like the ones that show up when you h over over a talent (demo: https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/hunter/talents.html)


The way things work now: Each talent is a QGraphicsItem, each tree is a QGraphicsScene inside a QFrame. The whole thing is wrapped in a QTalentWidget. I've experimented with having the hover event draw a custom window for the talent, which I'ved styled successfully, but the window doesn't extend the Scene, but tooltips do.

So is there a way to style tooltips that I am unaware of? Or is there a way to make this custom window I have being drawn have the ability to display over top of everything? I'm using QT Jambi with eclipse. If its worth anything, I have the same problem witht he QT stylesheet demo, can't change the tooltip properties.

Using the JAMBI demo launcher, the style DOES NOT change when I edit the stylesheet. Using the C++ demo launcher, it DOES change. Does jambi not have the ability to style tooltips?

1. The link you provided is invalid.
2. Which version of Jambi are you using?

Sorry, fixed the link. I'm using jambi 4.3.3. Again, even in the demo for stylsheets, the tooltip style doesn't change.

Does styling regular widgets work?

At worst you'll have to use QToolTip together with intercepting appropriate events and show a custom widget as a tooltip. The docs of the aforementioned class should give you some hints.
