In this article we will see how we can set style sheet to 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. Style sheet is the properties which are used to make the appearance better i.e by creating customized design. It can be set with the help of setStyleSheet method.
In order to do this we will use setStyleSheet method with the list widget object. Syntax : list_widget.setStyleSheet(sheet) Argument : It takes string as argument Return : It returns None
Below is the example style sheet code
QListWidget { border : 2px solid black; background : lightgreen; } QListWidget QScrollBar { background : lightblue; } QListView::item:selected { border : 2px solid black; background : green; }
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 , 80 ) # list widget items item1 = QListWidgetItem("PyQt5 Geeks for Geeks") item2 = QListWidgetItem("B") item3 = QListWidgetItem("C") item4 = QListWidgetItem("D") # adding items to the list widget list_widget.addItem(item1) list_widget.addItem(item2) list_widget.addItem(item3) list_widget.addItem(item4) # setting style sheet list_widget.setStyleSheet("QListWidget" "{" "border : 2px solid black;" "background : lightgreen;" "}" "QListWidget QScrollBar" "{" "background : lightblue;" "}" "QListView::item:selected" "{" "border : 2px solid black;" "background : green;" "}" ) # creating a label label = QLabel("Lazyroar", self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 230 , 80 , 280 , 80 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
