Blank square icon appears next to items in combobox on mac

[aPeter1]

Describe the bug
Checkbox like widget appears next to items when you expand a combobox. This is particularly annoying for small boxes where you can no longer see all the text. Should be an easy fix I imagine, might be a style issue?

[aPeter1]

This is a known problem which they (QDarkStyle) marked as fixed, I'll have to see how they thought they fixed it because I'm using the newest version and it is still broken. Using older versions of PyQt5, QDarkStyle and Python did not seem to help.

[aPeter1]

@jaredblack Do you see the same problem on your mac?

[jaredblack]

I'm seeing that as well. I can't seem to update my dependencies though, so I don't think I'm on that new version of QDarkStyle

[aPeter1]

I'd say we'd probably want to make it so those comboxes aren't a fixed width and then we can see about overriding some style. I kinda doubt they will fix it on their end very soon haha

[jaredblack]

I'm seeing that the comboboxes are the right size now, did you fix that? Should we close the issue now or wait until the QDarkStyle people fix their end?

[aPeter1]

I just expanded the size of the box because I couldn't figure out how to get the size to change appropriately on its own. I'd leave it open as long as the issue exists, maybe we can figure out how to create a style sheet to fix it. We could look at the styles they are applying to the relevant widgets.

@aPeter1, where can I see your changes? I am having the same problem...

[aPeter1]

@cudmore we don't have a great fix for it yet, I just increased the fixed width of the comboboxes by 20. My hopes aren't too high that qdarkstyle will fix it so let us know if you find a good solution!

Someone recommended a fix we can try here. @jaredblack, would you mind checking if it works (just a few lines of code)? I sold my mac 😂
