Customise QPushButton shape

[ataffard]

Hi,

I'm trying to make my own QPushButton with customized shape (circle, triangle etc of various dimension and color).
I started by writing a class inheriting from QPushButton and rewriting the paintEvent, but I'm not managing to getting it to work properly. It doesn't look like a button anymore, cannot be clicked etc...

Could anyone send some advice on how to do this.

Cheers
Anyes

Please see examples in Qt Demo, direct to Widgets->Style. This is a example about a customized style, it helps you how to create a customized push button & more ...

Hi,

This example change the whole style of the application and reimplement a different PE_PanelButtonCommand.
I don't see how I can make coexist buttons of different shapes within the same window application using this.

Recently I subclassed a QPushButton and re-implemented its paint event to draw my own Vista-style glass button. The code is on the wiki, here:

Its not exactly what you need I know, but maybe you can see by my example how you can draw your own buttons.
