Firefox on Raspbian

-
Recently I noticed that I'm using Chromium a lot even though I have Firefox installed. The reason turned out is the browser shortcut on panel. Anyway I fiddled a bit with panel and got Firefox there too. 
Then came usage. Turned out I needed few addons. First came Adblocking. Then h264ify for youtube on raspberry pi. Then after using this setup for 15 mins I found out google sites don't work. Hmm, bit of googling and then another add-on "User agent switcher" fixed this. 
Hmm I thought now things would be great. But I was sorely mistaken. Because my RPi3B+ hanged in next 15 mins and I lost this post - which I was typing in Text Editor. And I had to restart it manually. Sucks. 
So I think for web browsing on RPi3 I'm going for Chromium only. 
Cheers!!

QCalendarWidget CSS Stylesheeting

Recently I had to implement a calendar for a TouchScreen application. I resorted to css to modify the calendar widget's appearance so that it would be more accessible. Following is the code that enabled me to get a proper calendar. calendar->setStyleSheet("QMenu { font-size:20px; width: 300px; left: 20px; }"     "QToolButton {icon-size: 48px, 48px; font: 20px; height: 70px; width: 100px; }"     "QAbstractItemView {selection-background-color: rgb(255, 174, 0);}"     "QToolButton::menu-indicator{ width: 50px;}"     "QToolButton::menu-indicator:pressed,"     "QToolButton::menu-indicator:open{ top:10px; left: 10px;}"     "QTableView { font: 30px; }"     "QSpinBox { width: 100px; font: 20px;}"     "QSpinBox::up-button { width:40px;}"     "QSpinBox::down-button { width:40px;}");
