Python CSS
How can I change the CSS properties of a widget at runtime from a Python script?
Specifically, I want to change the background colour of a LineEdit widget when a certain case occurs and also reset it later.
This is done using the "setAttribute" function.
To make it possible, you need to know the ID of the object you want to change the color of. The ID can be found in the GUI editor.
Here is an example of changing the font color and size:
gui.edJogStep.setAttribute("styleSheet", "background-color: red; font-size: 24px;")
“edJogStep” is the ID of the object.
Thank you very much for the quick answer.
I had tried it as you showed, only I had css as the attribute name and not sylesheet.
Here you will find the concrete application (spindel warm up):

Great!
We are pleased when users customize simCNC for their own needs.
This develops the forum, which is a knowledge base for others.
Made a little movie about copying functionality and GUI from one screen to another.
Maybe it will help someone.
