ComboBox QStyle

[deMarco]

great, thanks guys.. turned out to be the QPalette::Base colour. I missed this little snippet in the documentation:

Used mostly as the background color for text entry widgets, but can also be used
for other painting - such as the background of combobox drop down lists and toolbar
handles. It is usually white or another light color.

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and no i didn't know about style sheets, will definately read up on them for my next project.. i've done too much qstyle work on this one to change over
