how to set focus on widget if it is selected??

[sudhansu]

Hi All,
I've created some small window ( derived from Qwidget), and place it in top of another QWidget. My requirment is ,If i select any small window then it should be focused and border need to be green. I override the paintevent(0 methode and did like following.

this->setStyleSheet("border: 2px solid Red");
this->setFocus();

this->setStyleSheet("border: 2px solid Red");
this->setFocus();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But its not working? Can any bold tell me how to achive this.?

Thank u all.

Donot set style sheet in painEvent .

You only need to set the stylesheet initially.

QWidget:focus {
    border: 3px solid green;
   }

QWidget:focus {
    border: 3px solid green;
   }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But if you use stylesheet, you will need to set its background and other things too. It simply wont draw border on top of the widget.
