In this article we will see how we can drag the text/content i.e whole text including prefix and suffix from it. When we create a spin box we can’t drag text from it, dragging text means moving the selected text any where according to the cursor.
In order to do this we use setDragEnabled method with the line edit object of spin box.
Syntax : line_edit.setDragEnabled(True)
Argument : It takes bool as argument
Return: It returns None
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 spin box self .spin = QSpinBox( self ) # setting geometry to spin box self .spin.setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 250 , 40 ) # setting prefix to spin self .spin.setPrefix( "Prefix " ) # setting suffix to spin self .spin.setSuffix( " Suffix" ) # getting the line edit object line = self .spin.lineEdit() # enabling the drag line.setDragEnabled( True ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
Output :
