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.

I'm trying to use style sheets to add spaces before and after each drop down item so that it can be selected more easily with a finger in a touch screen but haven't found out how. Does anyone know what the right option is?

Here's my stylesheet for QComboBox:

QComboBox {
    color: white;
    border-color: white;
    background-color: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2:0, y2: 1, stop: 0 beige, stop: 1 black);
    border: 1px solid white;
    border-radius: 3px;
    padding: 1px 18px 1px 3px;
    min-width: 6em;
    font: 15pt "Sans Serif";
}
 
QComboBox QAbstractItemView {
    border: 2px solid darkgray;
    color: white;
    padding: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
    selection-background-color: lightgray;
}

    color: white;
    border-color: white;
    background-color: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2:0, y2: 1, stop: 0 beige, stop: 1 black);
    border: 1px solid white;
    border-radius: 3px;
    padding: 1px 18px 1px 3px;
    min-width: 6em;
    font: 15pt "Sans Serif";
}

QComboBox QAbstractItemView {
    border: 2px solid darkgray;
    color: white;
    padding: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
    selection-background-color: lightgray;
}
