How to Convert Qcolor value to hex value?

qt pyqt hex

I have implemented a QColor dialog box which opens on certain condition. To get the selected color after final selection I use the method selectedColor() which returns the value in QColor. When I print that value, it's like this:

<PyQt4.QtGui.QColor object at 0x01DD7880>

I want color value in hex value like this: #DFDFDF (for grey). If it's not hex, correct me.

Is there any function to convert that?

Any suggestions welcome.

You need to print selectedColor().name() to print the actual color value in hex. See the QColor Documentation
