Hey Marek I make it using following code..


QPalette p;
p.setColor(lineEdit->backgroundRole(), Qt::transparent);
lineEdit->setPalette(p);


But The problem is that the border of the line edit is disturbing my project.... Means I also want to make border transparent.... Is there any way to do that???

I solve the problem simply using the stylesheet....

lineEdit->setStyleSheet(QString::fromUtf8("border:0px;""bac kground:transparent"));

Try to avoid stylesheets if possible and use QPalette to do what you want.

QPalette palette;
palette.setBrush( QPalette::Base, Qt::transparent );
lineEdit->setPalette( palette );
lineEdit->setFrame( false );

QPalette palette;
palette.setBrush( QPalette::Base, Qt::transparent );
lineEdit->setPalette( palette );
lineEdit->setFrame( false );
