Modifying dock label css

[Matjaz]

Hi.

The dock system in pyqtgraph is super useful but the color/font theme does not really work well for my application. I would like to modify it. I can do this by going to dock.py and changing css inside the DockLabel class. Ofcourse i would have problems when distributing this code.

Is there a way to change the style from outside of pyqtgraph? Are there any plans to open this up so the interface can be changed through Dock class or similar?

kind regards,

mm

Have you tried the setStyleSheet method?  For example, in the examples of Dock widgets, you can change the background of d2 by adding:

d2.setStyleSheet("background-color:yellow")

This doesn't do it. It just changes the background of the widget in the window.

The way i see it dock label css is hardcoded. https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/blob/develop/pyqtgraph/dockarea/Dock.py#L266

So what do you want?  Of course it only changes the background color, it says "backgroung-color:"...

:D I want to change the styling of the tab and the label.

I highlighted the area I want to change with yellow:

This is the workaround I am using right now - may be useful to somebody:
