The problem is that when i run: python main.py and then highlight a row, the text color in the first column be white, but the text color in the second column be black. :/

What qss selector may i use for this situation?

Answer 1

I used the currentCellChanged signal to find which row is selected. Then when this signal is emitted then i change the qss of image title Label.
