Description
@samuelgarcia
Howdy Samuel,
While testing the installation_tips from spikeinterface for windows and Mac, both had a rendering issue with the menus for the gui:
I'm happy to try to fix this, but to be honest I don't know much about Qt stuff. I saw in your code that you were thinking about setting stylesheets in mainwindow.py so maybe that would help and if you're working on other stuff I could play around with that.
I've attached the rendering issue below.
