Style sheets and font weight bug

[Oleg]

Hi, all.

I have a strange bug with QTabWidget styling it with custom sheet. So, I have the following code:
QTabBar::tab {
font-weight: bold;
padding: 0px 10px 0 10px;
}

And the font is really bold, but the place for the text doesn't increase, so first and last letters are invisible.

Any suggestions, what have I missed? Thanks in advance.

Im not much into stylesheets, but is it possible to change the width of the tab using the stylesheet? Something like
min-width: 100;

Although it sounds like a bug

[Oleg]

Yeah, min-width works, but only if text width is less than its value. It doesn't fit my case.

no it isn't bug
it is right you write, left righ pads are 0

QTabBar::tab {
font-weight: bold;
padding: 0px 10px 0 10px;
}

QTabBar::tab {
font-weight: bold;
padding: 0px 10px 0 10px;
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

try without padding

I tried it beforehand with no success I think it should recalculate widget size depending on font style changing, but it doesn't.

So, here's my screenshots, both with no padding.
Normal font:

Bold font:

QTabWidget::pane {
     background-color: #ffffff;
     border: 2px solid #56aa04;
     border-radius: 10px;
     top: -1px;
 }
 
 QTabWidget::tab-bar {
     left: 15px;
 }
 
 QTabBar::tab {
     border: none;
     color: #56aa04;
     height: 25px;
     font-weight: bold;
 }
 
 QTabBar::tab:selected {
     background-color: #ffffff;
     border: 2px solid #56aa04;
     border-top-left-radius: 10px;
     border-top-right-radius: 10px;
     border-bottom: 3px solid #ffffff;
 }

QTabWidget::pane {
     background-color: #ffffff;
     border: 2px solid #56aa04;
     border-radius: 10px;
     top: -1px;
 }

 QTabWidget::tab-bar {
     left: 15px;
 }

 QTabBar::tab {
     border: none;
     color: #56aa04;
     height: 25px;
     font-weight: bold;
 }

 QTabBar::tab:selected {
     background-color: #ffffff;
     border: 2px solid #56aa04;
     border-top-left-radius: 10px;
     border-top-right-radius: 10px;
     border-bottom: 3px solid #ffffff;
 }

I tried this on

QTabWidget::pane {
     border: 2px solid green;
     border-radius: 5px;
 
 }
QTabBar::tab
{
border-top-left-radius:5px;
	font: bold 8pt "MS Shell Dlg 2";
border-top-right-radius:5px;
border-top:2px solid green;
border-left:2px solid green;
border-right:2px solid green;
}
QTabBar::tab:selected
{
 color: red;
}

QTabWidget::pane {
     border: 2px solid green;
     border-radius: 5px;

 }
QTabBar::tab
{
border-top-left-radius:5px;
	font: bold 8pt "MS Shell Dlg 2";
border-top-right-radius:5px;
border-top:2px solid green;
border-left:2px solid green;
border-right:2px solid green;
}
QTabBar::tab:selected
{
 color: red;
}

it is working properly only when is in designer tabWidget->font->bold checked or programaticaly tabWidget->font()->setBold(true) called

combination of border and font-weight make this error/bug

[Oleg]

Thanks it makes the deal. I think this issue can be reported as bug on Qt's bugtracker...
