changing button background color

[SixDegrees]

There is no simple way to do this with palettes or stylesheets. On some operating systems it will work, but others (<cough>Windows<cough>) do not allow button backgrounds to be altered. The only foolproof way to do this is to derive your own button class and override the paint method.

Third party here:

That will make the button a solid color, is there a way to change the button color with shades, so it looks like a modern button. Like it does by default, except chaning the theme color.

Any suggestions?

To make the shade in buttons , u can use stylesheets's transparent property or u can design ur own images and apply to the button;

for Gradient:

QLinearGradient( x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #88d, stop: 0.1 #99e, stop: 0.49 #77c, stop: 0.5 #66b, stop: 1 #77c);

QLinearGradient( x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #88d, stop: 0.1 #99e, stop: 0.49 #77c, stop: 0.5 #66b, stop: 1 #77c);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

for images :

background-image: url(/path/to/image.png);

background-image: url(/path/to/image.png);
