In this article we will see how to set a skin to a check box. Skin is also a type of background image but it adjust itself according to the size of check box. Below is the representation of the background image check box vs check box with skin.
In order to do this we have to change the style sheet and had to set the skin, which is used with check box object. Below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox { border-image : url(skin.png); }
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 , 600 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for widgets def UiComponents( self ): # creating the check-box checkbox = QCheckBox( 'Geek ?' , self ) # setting geometry of check box checkbox.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 100 , 30 ) # setting stylesheet # adding skin to check box checkbox.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox" "{" "border - image : url(skin.png);" "}") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
