Qt5 - setting background color to QPushButton and QCheckBox

Question

I\'m trying to change the background color of a QAbstractButton (either a QPushButton or QCheckBox) in Qt5 and having zero luck.

This does nothing:

p

I found a stupid way, tried every attribute in palette, and it works for me when changing 'QPalette::Base'. Maybe you can have a try.

    pButton->setAutoFillBackground(true);
    QPalette palette = pButton->palette();
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::Window, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::Foreground, QColor(Qt.blue));
    palette.setColor(QPalette::Base, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::AlternateBase, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::ToolTipBase, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::ToolTipText, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::Text, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::Button, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::ButtonText, QColor(Qt.blue));
    //palette.setColor(QPalette::BrightText, QColor(Qt.blue));
    pButton->setPalette(palette);
    pButton->show();
