In this article we will see how to set skin to the checkbox when it is in unchecked state. By default no symbol is placed for the unchecked indicator although we can change it in-place of image. Skin is basically background image which can adjust it self according to the size of indicator of check box. In order to do this we have to change the style sheet code, below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox::indicator::unchecked
{
border-image : url(image.png)
}
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing librariesfrom PyQt5.QtWidgets import *from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGuifrom PyQt5.QtGui import *from PyQt5.QtCore import *import sysclass 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 unchecked indicator checkbox1.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox::indicator:unchecked" "{" "border-image : url(image.png);" "}")# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
