Qt QTableWidget's gray dotted border around a selected cell [duplicate]

Question

I'm wondering if anyone knows of, perhaps a flag to disable the gray dotted border that appears when you single click on a QTableWidget's cell.

Thanks.

Answer 1

C++: tableWidget->setFocusPolicy(Qt::NoFocus);

Python: tableWidget.setFocusPolicy(QtCore.Qt.NoFocus)

Be aware that you will lose the ability to process keyboard events, but mouse events will work fine.

Answer 2

It seems like you want to remove the border when the cell gets the focus.

Try editing the Stylesheet as follows.

QTableWidget {
    outline: 0;
}

This worked for me perfectly.

Answer 3

That gray dotted border indicates that that widget has focus.

Setting the below at the widget level should do the trick.

setFocusPolicy( Qt::NoFocus )
