Here is an article that describes how to style a QProgressBar.

To try this out, add the following code to
examples/qtconcurrent/progressdialog/main.cpp

    QString style =
        "QProgressBar:horizontal {"
        "border: 1px solid gray;"
        "border-radius: 3px;"
        "background: white;"
        "padding: 1px;"
        "}"
        "QProgressBar::chunk:horizontal {"
        "background: qlineargradient(x1: 0, y1: 0.5, x2: 1, y2: 0.5,
stop: 0 green, stop: 1 white);"
        "}";

    dialog.setStyleSheet(style);
