Styles sheets are textual specifications that can be set on the whole application using QApplication::setStyleSheet() or on a specific widget (and its children) using QWidget::setStyleSheet(). If several style sheets are set at different levels, Qt derives the effective style sheet from all of those that are set. This is called cascading.
For example, the following style sheet specifies that all QLineEdits should use yellow as their background color, and all QCheckBoxes should use red as the text color:
QLineEdit { background: yellow } QCheckBox { color: red }
For this kind of customization, style sheets are much more powerful than QPalette. For example, it might be tempting to set the QPalette::Buttonrole to red for a QPushButton to obtain a red push button. However, this wasn‘t guaranteed to work for all styles, because style authors are restricted by the different platforms‘ guidelines and (on Windows XP and Mac OS X) by the native theme engine.
Style sheets let you perform all kinds of customizations that are difficult or impossible to perform using QPalette alone. If you want yellow backgrounds for mandatory fields, red text for potentially destructive push buttons, or fancy check boxes, style sheets are the answer.
Style sheets are applied on top of the current widget style, meaning that your applications will look as native as possible, but any style sheet constraints will be taken into consideration. Unlike palette fiddling, style sheets offer guarantees: If you set the background color of aQPushButton to be red, you can be assured that the button will have a red background in all styles, on all platforms. In addition, Qt Designerprovides style sheet integration, making it easy to view the effects of a style sheet in different widget styles.
In addition, style sheets can be used to provide a distinctive look and feel for your application, without having to subclass QStyle. For example, you can specify arbitrary images for radio buttons and check boxes to make them stand out. Using this technique, you can also achieve minor customizations that would normally require subclassing several style classes, such as specifying a style hint. The Style Sheet example depicted below defines two distinctive style sheets that you can try out and modify at will.

When a style sheet is active, the QStyle returned by QWidget::style() is a wrapper "style sheet" style, not the platform-specific style. The wrapper style ensures that any active style sheet is respected and otherwise forwards the drawing operations to the underlying, platform-specific style (e.g., QWindowsXPStyle on Windows XP).
Since Qt 4.5, Qt style sheets fully supports Mac OS X.
Warning: Qt style sheets are currently not supported for custom QStyle subclasses. We plan to address this in some future release.
