In this article we will see how to create capsule shaped radio button. By default shape of radio button is rectangle, capsule shape is basically a shape in which a rectangle is having two semi-circles at both the ends.
Below is the representation of normal bordered radio button vs the capsule shaped radio button.
In order to do this we have to do the following:
1. Create a radio button
2. Set width greater than the height of radio button
3. Add border to it
4. Set radius of radio button to the half of height
Style sheet code to add border and radius to radio button –
QRadioButton { border : 3px solid black; border-radius : 20px; }
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 radio button self .radio_button = QRadioButton( self ) # setting geometry of radio button self .radio_button.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 120 , 40 ) # setting text to radio button self .radio_button.setText( "Radio Button" ) # changing style sheet code of radio button setting border to # radio button and changing radius to half of height self .radio_button.setStyleSheet( "QRadioButton" "{" "border : 3px solid black;" "border-radius : 20px;" "}" ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
