QFont to qss stylesheet

With a QFontDialog I get a QFont object as return value. I am using Qt stylesheets with widgets, so setting myWidget->setFont(fontFromDialog) does not seem to have any effect.

Can I translate a font object into a qss string representing the values of the font, similar to font.toString() used with the settings.

You can set the font straight from the dialog using getFont, i'd try this potentially, might have to alter some code. 

myWidget.setFont(QFontDialog::getFont(0, myWidget.font()));

Also, have a look at the Qt documentation for this as it could potentially help a lot!

Try this:

QFont aFont;
QString theStyleSheet = QString("font: 75 %1pt \"%2\"").arg(aFont.pointSize()).arg(aFont.family());
