I have a QPushButton and would like to put a red border around it with a certain thickness. What's the best way to do this?

right-click it and then "Change styleSheet...", then you can use css to set border.
try this:
border: 1px solid red;

How would I do it with C++ code?

Hiya,
p_myPushButton = QPushButton("MyButton", p_parent);
p_myPushButton->setStyleSheet("border:5px solid #ff0000;");
That should do it.
Yours,
Matthew.

setStyleSheet() doesn't exist for QPushButton... am I missing something?

Sure it does. It inherits the setStyleSheet member function from QWidget via QAbstractButton.
Good luck!

I'm sorry, you are correct. My intellisense was messing up and throwing me off! Anyway, it does set the button's border, but it blanks out the button's background. I tried setting it again after the setStyleSheet call but it did not work, presumably because it's being overwritten by the style sheet settings. I understand I could use "background-color" in the style sheet instead, but is that the only way to do it? Thanks.
