QListView StyleSheet NOT WORKING!

[QbelcorT]

hi, ok it seems Trolltech wants me to become a rocket scientist, I can't figure out why this stylesheet will not work. The only part of it working is show-decoration-selected: 1;
This is the example right out of the docs, I want to make it work before I put my style in. ( change font, and color).
I have QtEmbedded 4.4.1
Thanks for any tips.

ui->listWidget->setStyleSheet("QListView { show-decoration-selected: 1;}\
 item:alternate { background: #EEEEEE;}\
item:selected:active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #ADAFE5, stop: #8588B2);}\
item:selected:!active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1,stop: 0 #6a6ea9, stop: #888dd9);}");

ui->listWidget->setStyleSheet("QListView { show-decoration-selected: 1;}\
 item:alternate { background: #EEEEEE;}\
item:selected:active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #ADAFE5, stop: #8588B2);}\
item:selected:!active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1,stop: 0 #6a6ea9, stop: #888dd9);}");

Nice-looking GUI.

I looked through some old code where I styled a QListWidget and my code looked similar to yours except that I called the items with class scope (i.e. QListWidget::item:alternate), so maybe it's that. I've never worked with Qt embedded though.

Do you use a custom delegate? If so, what did you derive it from?

[QbelcorT]

Hi.
No I am not using a custom delegate. For the list items I am using the text name and an icon with it. Created it using the designer. All I would like to do is change the font to bold when the item is selected.

Hi, the qlineargradient () syntax is wrong. You have forgotten a number for the last stop.

[QbelcorT]

my bad, thanks Lykurg, I forgot the last stops. I think I'll leave the selection color in for the rectangle, it looks better than bolding the text.

#define	LISTVIEWSTYLE "QListView { show-decoration-selected: 1;}\
	QListView::item:alternate { background: transparent;}\
	QListView::item:selected:active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #ADAFE5, stop: 1 #8588B2);}\
	QListView::item:selected:!active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1,stop: 0 #6a6ea9, stop: 1 #888dd9);}"

#define	LISTVIEWSTYLE "QListView { show-decoration-selected: 1;}\
	QListView::item:alternate { background: transparent;}\
	QListView::item:selected:active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1, stop: 0 #ADAFE5, stop: 1 #8588B2);}\
	QListView::item:selected:!active{ background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 0, y2: 1,stop: 0 #6a6ea9, stop: 1 #888dd9);}"
