Do you mean the progress bar on the QProgressDialog? If so, you can set its palette Highlight color to the color you want.

Maybe QProgressDialog constructs the progress bar with a default bar. To replace it just create a new QProgressBar* , change its color and replace it with setBar ( QProgressBar * bar )

Qt Code:
  1. QProgressBar * myBar = new QProgressBar(this);
  2.  
  3. QPalette palette1;
  4. QBrush brush2(QColor(192, 0, 0, 255)); //Some red color
  5. brush2.setStyle(Qt::SolidPattern);
  6. palette1.setBrush(QPalette::Active, QPalette::Highlight, brush2);
  7. palette1.setBrush(QPalette::Inactive, QPalette::Highlight, brush2);
  8. QBrush brush3(QColor(204, 199, 197, 255));
  9. brush3.setStyle(Qt::SolidPattern);
  10. palette1.setBrush(QPalette::Disabled, QPalette::Highlight, brush3);
  11. myBar->setPalette(palette1);
  12.  
  13. MyProgressDialog.setBar(myBar);
