In this article we will see how we can set skin to the line edit part of the non-editable combo box. Line edit is the part which is used to enter and view the item. Skin is basically background image which adjust itself according to the size of line edit.
Note : When we add line edit object to the combo box it will make combo box editable there is need to make it non-editable
Steps to do this :
1. Create a combo box
2. Create a QLineEdit object
3. Set skin to the QlineEdit object
4. Make the line edit non-editable
5. Add QLineEdit object to the combo box
Syntax :
# creating line edit object
line_edit = QLineEdit()
# setting skin to line edit object
line_edit.setStyleSheet("QLineEdit"
"{"
"border-image : url(skin.png);"
"}")
# making it non editable
line_edit.setReadOnly(True)
# adding line edit object to combo box
combo_box.setLineEdit(line_edit)
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 a check-able combo box object self.combo_box = QComboBox(self) # setting geometry of combo box self.combo_box.setGeometry(200, 150, 200, 80) # geek list geek_list = ["Sayian", "Super Sayian", "Super Sayian 2", "Super Sayian B"] # adding list of items to combo box self.combo_box.addItems(geek_list) # creating line edit object line_edit = QLineEdit() # setting skin to line edit line_edit.setStyleSheet("QLineEdit" "{" "border-image : url(skin.png);" "}") # making it non editable line_edit.setReadOnly(True) # adding line edit object to combo box self.combo_box.setLineEdit(line_edit) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() window.show() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
