Setting a font for a QInputDialog using option UseListViewForComboBoxItems.

[cydside]

Hi to all,
the following code will explain the problem better than words:

QFont font;
   font.setPointSize(14);
 
   QInputDialog tSelectFourMonthPeriod;
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setFont(font);
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setOption(QInputDialog::UseListViewForComboBoxItems);
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setWindowTitle(tr("Print Options."));
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setLabelText(tr("Selection:"));
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setComboBoxItems(prepareFourMonthPerYearPeriod());
   int ret = tSelectFourMonthPeriod.exec();
 
   if (ret == QDialog::Accepted)
      qDebug() << "Selection:" << tSelectFourMonthPeriod.textValue();

QFont font;
   font.setPointSize(14);

   QInputDialog tSelectFourMonthPeriod;
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setFont(font);
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setOption(QInputDialog::UseListViewForComboBoxItems);
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setWindowTitle(tr("Print Options."));
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setLabelText(tr("Selection:"));
   tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setComboBoxItems(prepareFourMonthPerYearPeriod());
   int ret = tSelectFourMonthPeriod.exec();

   if (ret == QDialog::Accepted)
      qDebug() << "Selection:" << tSelectFourMonthPeriod.textValue();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and it runs nice but the QListView's font is NOT what I set, it's the default!!!
How can I set the same for the QListView?
Thanks in advance.

P.S.: It happens on Windows 7, Qt 4.8.3 Qt Creator 2.5.2.

It behaves as expected here on Linux but I see different behaviour on Windows XP: only the dialog labels and buttons change. Might be worth search for a bug report.

You seem to be able to work around it using a style sheet to set the font:

QInputDialog tSelectFourMonthPeriod;
  tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setStyleSheet("* { font-size: 14pt; }" );

QInputDialog tSelectFourMonthPeriod;
  tSelectFourMonthPeriod.setStyleSheet("* { font-size: 14pt; }" );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode
