In this article we will see how we can set line edit to the combo box, line edit is the widget in pyqt5. A line edit allows the user to enter and edit a single line of plain text with a useful collection of editing functions, including undo and redo, cut and paste, and drag and drop. In order to add line edit to the combo box we use setLineEdit method, with this we can use line edit widget to enter the item in combo box even if it non editable state.
Syntax : combo_box.setLineEdit(line_edit)
Argument : It takes QLineEdit object as argument
Action performed : This will add line edit to the combo box
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 "] # adding list of items to combo box self .combo_box.addItems(geek_list) # creating a line edit edit = QLineEdit( self ) # setting line edit self .combo_box.setLineEdit(edit) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
