I have a mixin class that reimplements the paint event. It first paints the normal widget then adds indicator painting.

Thanks Chris, that's going to take a bit of study for me to break it down. Pretty cool stuff.

Yes action buttons are some of the most complicated code.
It does make buttons a little less boring

Hi Chris,
how to install this widget? Only copy the file indicatorMixIn.py to /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/qtvcp/widgets ? Can it then be used with Qt Designer?

IndicatorMixin is not meant to be used directly. It is 'mixed in' with another button widget such as Qtvcp's PushButton widget or IndicatedPushButton widget

Thanks Chris, I thought that was a standalone widget. Thanks for the info.
