[Qt-interest] QStyle vs. style sheets

[Ben Axelrod]

I am using Qt to try to match the look and feel of an existing application.  The buttons in the app are very unique looking, and I have images for the various button states.  I am wondering if doing it through QStyle or style sheets would be better.  (i.e. what is the difference between the two).  Here is some more info:

I have a set of images for each button, for all states.  So setting background colors, borders, and even text doesn't matter.  Furthermore, these state graphics are actually all within a single image file.  I have the coordinates of the individual graphics and can pull them out programmatically.  I have used Qt quite a bit in the past, but I have never customized the look and feel before.  Do either QStyle or style sheets lend itself better to my application?  And can anyone recommend some good design patterns here?

Thanks,
-Ben
