QWidget::setMask() does not work on OS X side?

[Dreamerzz]

I am creating a custom triangular button from a push button, using PNG/svgs as pictures.(alphas are set). However, when I attempt to set a mask( so you can only click on the triangle rather than the encompassing rectangle), it would not work in the MAC side, but it works perfectly fine in the windows side. Does anyone know what the issue is?

here is a snippet of my code




#include <QPixmap>
#include <QBitmap>
#include <QDebug>
...

ui->setupUi(this);
QPixmap pixmap(":/Button1/triangle.svg");
ui->pushButton->setMask(pixmap.mask());

Did you check the bug tracker?
I found this on a quick look:
https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com//browse/QTBUG-16406

i tried adding it without luck. :(

Perhaps theres a difference when it comes to pushbuttons and labels?

Also im not giving the pushbutton a pixmap but editing its style sheets

That is not the code you posted.... ?

what i showed you was the masking part of the button.

how the button looks was done with style sheets


QPushButton#sampleButton:enabled{
border-image: url(:/images/triangle.png);
}

QPushButton#sampleButton:hover{
border-image: url(:/images/triangle2.png);
}

QPushButton#sampleButton:pressed {
border-image: url(:/images/triangle3.png);
}


sorry for the confusion!

Masking should not be effect by the stylesheet AFAIK.
Comment out the stylesheet to make sure.
I would also try using a png with alpha channel or even create a simple binary mask in code and try it.

PNG alphamasks didn't work either

hm..
