PyQt5 – Bordered Check Box
In this article we will see how to set border to a check box. By default there is no border available to the check box like it is present in push button although the indicator of check box has its own border.
Below is how normal check box looks like vs the bordered check box looks like.
In order to add border to the whole check box we have to change the CSS style sheet of it, below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox { border : 2px solid black; }
This style sheet is used with setStyleSheet
method, below is the implementation.
# importing libraries from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui from PyQt5.QtGui import * from PyQt5.QtCore import * import sys class Window(QMainWindow): def __init__( self ): super ().__init__() # setting title self .setWindowTitle( "Python " ) # setting geometry self .setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 600 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for widgets def UiComponents( self ): # creating the check-box checkbox = QCheckBox( 'Geek ?' , self ) # setting geometry of check box checkbox.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 100 , 30 ) # adding border to checkbox checkbox.setStyleSheet( "QCheckBox" "{" "border : 2px solid black;" "}" ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
