stylesheet example not working correctly

I cut and pasted the evil button example from the trolltech doc pages.
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/stylesheet-…pecific-widgets

QPushButton#evilButton {
background-color: red;
border-style: outset;
border-width: 2px;
border-radius: 10px;
border-color: beige;
font: bold 14px;
min-width: 10em;
padding: 6px;
}
QPushButton#evilButton:pressed {
background-color: rgb(224, 0, 0);
border-style: inset;
}

I pasted it into the stylsheet for the button. It worked sort of. The web example shows a red button with a border. Mine looks the same except there is a red rectangle behind the button.

The author did not specify what system he was using.

I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 and QT designer 4.2.3.

I played with it quite a bit and I'm sure I understand the style sheet concept. It is very cool. However it does not seem to be working correctly.

I realize this is a trivial example but I'm still evaluating QT designer along with other options.

If anyone can help clear this up I'd really appreciate it.

RE: stylesheet example not working correctly

I am having a similar problem. The button appears correctly in Designer, but none of the coloring appears when I compile and launch the application.
