In this article we will see how to set the color to the check box when it get pressed while in the checked state. By default no pressed color is set to the label part of the check box, although indicator by default has a light blue background color when it get pressed.
In order to add background color to the check box when pressed from checked state we have to edit the style sheet code which is used with check box object. Below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox::checked:pressed
{
background-color : pink;
}
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 background color to the pressed check box label part # when it is in checked state checkbox.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox::checked:pressed" "{" "background-color : pink;" "}") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
