In this article we will see how we can center align the text of combo box and combo box should remain non-editable. By default the combo box text is left align and combo box don’t have any alignment method of its own.
In order to center align the text we have to do the following – 1. Create a combo box 2. Make line edit object from combo box 3. Center align the line edit 4. Make the line edit on editable
Note : Because of the line edit object combo box will become editable therefore there is a need to make it non editable Syntax :
# getting the line edit of combo box line_edit = self.combo_box.lineEdit() # setting line edit alignment to the center line_edit.setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter) # setting line edit to read only line_edit.setReadOnly(True)
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 a combo box widget self .combo_box = QComboBox( self ) # setting geometry of combo box self .combo_box.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 150 , 30 ) # geek list geek_list = ["Sayian", " Super Sayian", " Super Sayian 2 ", " Super Sayian B"] # making it editable self .combo_box.setEditable( True ) # adding list of items to combo box self .combo_box.addItems(geek_list) # getting the line edit of combo box line_edit = self .combo_box.lineEdit() # setting line edit alignment to the center line_edit.setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter) # setting line edit to read only line_edit.setReadOnly( True ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
Output :
