Using variables in qt StyleSheets

问题:

Is there any possibility of giving variable name to hex/rgb numbers in .qss file . For eh

myColor = #FFCC08
QPushButton { background-color: myColor;}

So that i can define the variable at the top of the stylesheet and use the variable name whereever required instead of using the hex code. Also if i need to change the color then i have to change in one place and it will be reflected throught the file.

I also searched for Saas but don't know how it can be used in qt.

Thanks :)

You could build your own tiny Sass quite easily:

1.Create a text file with definitions of variables. Use simple format like this:

@myColor  = #FFDDEE
@myColor2 = #112233 
@myWidth  = 20px

2.In qss file use variable names:

QPushButton { 
    background-color: @myColor; 
    min-width: @myWidth;
}

3.Open both files and for each variable in definition file change its occurrence in qss file with the value (string) from the definition file. It is a simple string replacement.

4.Apply the preprocessed qss in the app.

This is the simplest solution. You can change both definition file and qss file outside the app and apply it without recompilation of code.

What you're trying to accomplish simply isn't possible using pure Qt style sheets.

You can achieve a similar effect by modifying and reloading your style sheets from within your C++ code, for example:

QString myColor = "#FFCC08";
QString styleSheet = "QPushButton { background-color: %1;}";
...
myWidget->setStyleSheet( styleSheet.arg(myColor) );

Unfortunately this has several drawbacks (inability to preview in designer, changing code rather than a style sheet), but it's about as close as you can get to what you're trying to achieve with Qt.

Here is a solution using sass. First, install the python bindings:

pip install sass

Then, use it:

import sys
import sass
app = QApplication(sys.argv)

# Create your sass style sheet (you can also write this in a file and load the file)
style = '''
$bg-dark: #292929;

QPushButton {
color: red;
background-color: $bg-dark;
}
'''.encode('utf-8')

# Compile Sass to CSS
style = sass.compile_string(style).decode()

# And set it to your app
app.setStyleSheet(style)
