[PyQt] Style sheet properties..

[Nick Gaens]

Try to change the style sheet string:

from: self.groupBox.setStyleSheet("background-color: rgb(255, 255,
255); border:1px solid rgb(255, 170, 255);")
to: self.groupBox.setStyleSheet("QGroupBox { background-color: rgb(255, 255,
255); border:1px solid rgb(255, 170, 255); }")

Thus adding QGroupBox and acolades..
