I initially experienced incorrect behaviour with PyQt4 and Qt 4.2.2 (Linux) but this was due to a misunderstanding. > newColor = QColorDialog.getColor(self.color) > if (newColor.isValid()): > self.color = newColor > palette = QPalette() > palette.setColor(QPalette.Button, self.color) > self.colorButton.setPalette(palette) > self.colorButton.setAutoFillBackground(TRUE) > Btw it worked fine with Qt3. This should work. Are you sure you've got the colour you expect? I was initially selecting a colour in the dialog then hitting return. It turns out that you get a valid transparent colour in some situations, and that means that the button's palette isn't updated, I think. You might also want to obtain the button's existing palette rather than creating a new one each time. Use self.colorButton.palette() to get it.
