Hi Terry, I am not sure where to look next.
It seems that the desired behaviour would be along the lines of the following: The pane that has the focus should have the Qt box model border style associated with :focus. The same behaviour should be available for :hover. This is currently the case with the body pane if the widget style I created is in use. Without it, the body pane simply does not exhibit :hover or :focus. The outline pane (LeoQTreeWidget) appears to have different behaviours attached to it somewhere in the code as it responds to styling initially, but then does something else once clicked into. Both the outline pane and the log pane behave identically. They both respond to :hover initially but lose this behaviour on taking focus for the rest of the session. The focus styling for both is a 1px red border. In contrast, even without the body pane style in play, add-editor windows display the desired behaviour. They :hover, they display the focus line when they should and they gracefully relinquish it as well. Why this should be is a clue to the mystery. So far I know that a LeoQTextBrowser style works on the body pane. LeoQTreeWidget works on the outline pane until it takes the focus then it goes away for the rest of the session. I do not know what widget to style for the log pane. It would be helpful to know so I could examine the three for similarities and differences in how they are treated in qtGui.py and the leoSettings.leo file.
