In this article we will see how we can get the space between the item of the QListWidget. QListWidget is a convenience class that provides a list view with a classic item-based interface for adding and removing items. QListWidget uses an internal model to manage each QListWidgetItem in the list. Spacing property holds the space around the items in the layout. This property is the size of the empty space that is padded around an item in the layout. Setting this property when the view is visible will cause the items to be laid out again. By default, this property contains a value of 0 although it can be changed with the help of setSpacing method.
In order to do this we will use spacing method with the list widget object. Syntax : list_widget.spacing() Argument : It takes no argument Return : It returns integer
Below is the implementation
Python3
# 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 , 500 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for components def UiComponents( self ): # creating a QListWidget list_widget = QListWidget( self ) # setting geometry to it list_widget.setGeometry( 50 , 70 , 150 , 60 ) # list widget items item1 = QListWidgetItem("A") item2 = QListWidgetItem("B") item3 = QListWidgetItem("C") # adding items to the list widget list_widget.addItem(item1) list_widget.addItem(item2) list_widget.addItem(item3) # setting spacing property list_widget.setSpacing( 5 ) # creating a label label = QLabel("neveropen", self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 230 , 80 , 280 , 80 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # getting spacing between the items value = list_widget.spacing() # setting text to the label label.setText("Spacing : " + str (value)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
Output :
