PyQt5 – Setting skin to indeterminate CheckBox when pressed
In this article we will see how we can set skin to the indicator of the check box who is in intermediate (indeterminate) state and get pressed, This skin only appear when check box get pressed and its state was indeterminate. Indeterminate is the third state of check box it is in between checked and unchecked state, which can be created with the help of setTristate
method.
In order to add kin to the indicator when check box is in indeterminate state and get pressed we have to change the style sheet code. Below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox::indicator:indeterminate:pressed { border-image : url(image.png); }
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 checkbox1 = QCheckBox( 'Geek ?' , self ) # setting tristate check box checkbox1.setTristate( True ) # setting geometry of check box checkbox1.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 100 , 40 ) # changing style sheet code of check box # adding skin to indeterminate indicator when it get pressed checkbox1.setStyleSheet( "QCheckBox::indicator:indeterminate:pressed" "{" "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 ()) |
