In this article we will see how we can set the tool tip duration to the combo box. Tool tip is basically a tip occur when mouse hover over the combo box widget. In order to set the tool tip to the combo box we use setToolTip method.
Note : Tool tip get only visible when mouse hover over the combo box not on the drop down view
In order to set the tool tip duration we use setToolTipDuration method.
Syntax : combo_box.setToolTipDuration(n)
Argument : It takes integer as argument i.e milliseconds
Return : None
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, 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"] # making it editable self.combo_box.setEditable(True) # adding list of items to combo box self.combo_box.addItems(geek_list) # tool tip tip = "Sayian Tip" # setting tool tip to the combo box self.combo_box.setToolTip(tip) # setting duration to the tool tip self.combo_box.setToolTipDuration(2000) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
This tool tip get disappear after 2 seconds
