I am having QToolBar with various tool buttons on it. I want to customize those buttons with some simple effects like, it should be seen that button is pressed, after pressing it should change its icon color or background color etc.
I tried but I could not succeed.
_toolbar = new QToolBar;
_toolbar->setIconSize(QSize(35,35));
_toolbar->setToolButtonStyle(Qt::ToolButtonTextUnderIcon);
void createIcons()
{
_zoomInIcon = QIcon::fromTheme("zoom-in");
_zoomIn = new QAction(_zoomInIcon, "Zoom in", this);
// code for other icons
_toolbar->addAction(_zoomIn);
}
void myClass::ZoomIn()
{
_zoomIn->setCheckable(true);
//QToolButton:_zoomInIcon {background-color: red; }
//setStyleSheet('background-color: red;');
// other logic
}
Moreover I am using Qt's default icons from this default-icons
But some of the icons are not looking good specially save in
and save in as
.
So does any one knows more default icons apart from above link in Qt ?
Can anyone help me ?
Try something like below (not tested)
//Get the tool button using the action
QToolButton* zoomInButton = mytoolbar->widgetForAction(_zoomIn);
//Set the style you want.
zoomInButton->setStyleSheet("QToolButton:pressed"
"{"
"background-color : red;"
"}"
);
And you can use all QPushButton
styles, if your tool button don't have a menu.
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/stylesheet-examples.html#customizing-qtoolbutton
The QToolButton has no menu. In this case, the QToolButton is styled exactly like QPushButton.
