PyQt5 – Set skin of CheckBox indicator when mouse hover
In this article we will see how we can set skin to the indicator of check box when mouse hover over it. By default there is no skin/image associated to it. This skin will only appear when mouse hover the check box. In order to add skin to the indicator when mouse hover over it we have to change the style sheet code. Below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox::indicator:hover { border-image : url(image.png) }
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 , 600 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for widgets def UiComponents( self ): # creating the check-box checkbox1 = QCheckBox( 'Geek ?' , self ) # setting geometry of check box checkbox1.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 100 , 40 ) # setting tri-state check box checkbox1.setTristate( True ) # changing style sheet code of check box # adding skin to indicator when it mouse hover over it checkbox1.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox::indicator:hover" "{" "border - image : url(image.png);" "}") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
