How to add a callback to MC.warning to update commandLine1 QLineEdit background color ?

[oglop]

This is supposed to be a workaround, because I enlarged maya ui fonts with 

from Qt import QtGui

import maya.cmds as MC

styleSheet = '''

* {

  font: 13px;

}

QTextEdit,QMenu {

    font-family: "Courier New";

    font: normal 16px;

}

'''

app = QtGui.QApplication.instance()

app.setStyleSheet(styleSheet)

# This does not show yellow background color anymore

MC.warning('something')

Or am I doing something wrong with the stylesheet ? I tried  :not(QSplitter QLineEdit) to exclude it, but it has no effect ( still always dark color )

Marcus and Justin are much more knowledgeable about stylesheets than I am, but, I suspect you just need to set the stylesheet on the main window instead of the QApplication instance. 

The example on this page sets a color, but I think the same approach should work for you:

I don't have an answer for the stylesheet issue which seems like an interesting formatting problem...however I found a workaround (that I haven't tested really) that does not involve stylesheets but keeps the existing stylesheet rules intact:

app = QtWidgets.QApplication.instance()

font = QtGui.QFont()

font.setPointSize(16)

app.setFont(font)

I don't have a specific answer right now either. But I would definitely think it is preferable to set the QFont if that works and avoid stylesheets. Stylesheets are heavy handed, because when you override a widget's style it kind of overrides *everything* so you have to be really complete in defining all the attributes.
