I am trying to use CSS filters to create a "disabled" look for components I am working on. I am trying to make it so that everything is "washed out" a bit. I can create this effect by using opacity(0.75) for components which are on white background: then black becomes gray and all strong colors become a bit more white. But the issue is if the component is not on white background, then opacity does not work as I would like. So how could I use CSS filters to create this "wash out" look? Like to multiply with white color a bit all colors.
I tried contrast but it looks like everything goes to gray, not white (so black stays black much longer than with opacity, while other colors are already washed out).
Using a combination of Contrast and Brightness filters might give you what you need:
filter: contrast(30%) brightness(150%);
I have an image that is a simple coloured text on a black background. Is there a CSS filter (or a hacky combination of filters) that would allow me to turn black colour into complete transparency (essentially leaving me with just text)?
Provided the color wheel image how can we display it using CSS Sprites technique adding hover effects over the red, blue & yellow areas ? Clicking on any color area should open respective links.
Look thoroughly at the disabled QGroupBox title (see attached image).
You'll notice a tiny white 1-pixel shadow under the title's letters.
It's barely noticeable on default style sheet, but it can be much more annoying if you set dark background and text color.
What can I do to disable this shadow, or at least change its color?
What style are you using? It looks like the 'basic' Windows style. If you want to get rid of the text shadow, you can implement your own style and change the way the text is drawn for disabled group boxes. Read more about about QStyle and how to create a custom style here. The link is for Qt 5.1, but the principle is the same for Qt 4 as well.
An easier way would be to simply change the palette for the QGroupBox object. Change the color identified by color group QPalette::Disabled and color role QPalette::Light to any color with the alpha channel set to 0, e.g. QColor(0, 0, 0, 0). This will effectively disable the text shadow. However, it will also disable the shadow of the lines so it might not be what you want.
I've found a solution:
Unfortunately, you can't remove disabled text shadow (aka etching), but you can change its color using dirty workaround:
It looks like shadow effect always takes its color from the ColorGroup "Disabled" and the ColorRole "Light" of the current palette. So, you just set this color to the background color of your widget:
QPalette p = myWidget->palette();
p.setColor(QPalette::Disabled, QPalette::Light, QColor(0,0,0)); <- place your widget bg color here
myWidget->setPalette(p);

In the webform1 by using a color picker i have choosing a color.In the webform2 the color should be appeared as background color and if there is any letters or text in the webform2 it have to change as an opposite color.

This stack overflow question might have some answers for you.
Given a background color, how to get a foreground color that makes it readable on that background color?
