PyQt5 QListWidget – Getting Drop Indicator Property
In this article we will see how we can get the drop indicator property of the QListWidget. QListWidget is a convenience class that provides a list view with a classic item-based interface for adding and removing items. QListWidget uses an internal model to manage each QListWidgetItem in the list. This property holds the indicator which is shown when drag and drop is enabled and when we drop the item at a place an indicator appears it can be turned off any time. It can be set with the help of setDropIndicatorShown method.
In order to do this we will use showDropIndicator method with the list widget object.
Syntax : list_widget.showDropIndicator()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns bool
Below is the implementation
Python3
# 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 , 500 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for components def UiComponents( self ): # creating a QListWidget list_widget = QListWidget( self ) # setting geometry to it list_widget.setGeometry( 50 , 70 , 150 , 60 ) # list widget items item1 = QListWidgetItem("A") item2 = QListWidgetItem("B") item3 = QListWidgetItem("C") # adding items to the list widget list_widget.addItem(item1) list_widget.addItem(item2) list_widget.addItem(item3) # setting drag drop mode list_widget.setDragDropMode(QAbstractItemView.DragDrop) # making drop indicator enabled list_widget.setDropIndicatorShown( True ) # creating a label label = QLabel("w3wiki", self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 230 , 80 , 280 , 80 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # getting drop indicator shown property value = list_widget.showDropIndicator() # setting text to the label label.setText("Drop Indicator Property : " + str (value)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
