In this article we will see how we can get the selected color of the QColorDialog widget. Selected color is the color that the user selected by clicking the OK or equivalent button.
Note : This color is not always the same as the color held by the currentColor property since the user can choose different colors before finally selecting the one to use.
In order to do this we use selectedColor method with the QColorDialog object
Syntax : dialog.selectedColor()
Argument : It takes no argument
Returns : It returns QColor object
Below is the implementation
# 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 QColorDialog object dialog = QColorDialog(self) # executing the dialog dialog.exec_() # creating label label = QLabel("neveropen", self) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry(100, 100, 300, 80) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap(True) # setting stylesheet of the label label.setStyleSheet("QLabel" "{" "border : 5px solid black;" "}") # getting the selected color value = dialog.selectedColor() # setting text to the label label.setText("Selected Color : " + str(value)) color = value # setting graphic effect to the label graphic = QGraphicsColorizeEffect(self) # setting color to the graphic graphic.setColor(color) # setting graphic to the label label.setGraphicsEffect(graphic) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
