Setting a highlight text color for QTableWidgetItem

[high_flyer]

In that case have a look at QPalette I must admit, I find the various names confusing, and I always do a trail and error test before I get the colors right the way I want them.
I suggest you look at the QPalette docs for your item, and try the various enums that might make sense:
QPalette::Text
QPalette::Window
QPalette::WindowText
QPalette::Foreground

I can set the QPalette correct for the entire QTableWidget, but the problem comes when setting the QPalette for specific part of the widget, in this case for a one column. The table contains QTableWidgetItem:s, and I can change the colors for these individual cells using setForeground() and setBackground() for text and background respectively. But I don't know how to set the other color roles for this QTableWidgetItem or set the QPalette for it, and as the result it uses it's parents QPalette settings when the cell is highlighted. Do I have to make my own my_TableWidgetItem that reimplements the painting? Seems to be a bit excessive for a feature of this size.

Sorry, I assumed QTableWidgetItem was a QWidget, I see it is not...
I didn't do much with tables in Qt, so I am not 100% sure, but it looks to me you will have to subclass QTableWidgetItem if you want this on item level or the QTableWidget if you want this on table level.
But maybe some other users here who are more experienced with QTableWidget and friends can help more.

Isn't this somewhat similar problem than in this thread?
