In this article, we will see how to add image to a window. The basic idea of doing this is first of all loading the image using QPixmap and adding the loaded image to the Label then resizing the label according to the dimensions of the image, although the resizing part is optional.
In order to use Qpixmap and other stuff we have to import following libraries:
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * from PyQt5.QtGui import QPixmap import sys
For loading image :
Syntax :pixmap = QPixmap('image.png')Argument : Image name if image is in same folder else file path.
For adding image to label :
Syntax :label.setPixmap(pixmap)Argument : It takes QPixmap object as argument.
Code :
Python3
# importing the required librariesfrom PyQt5.QtWidgets import *from PyQt5.QtGui import QPixmapimport sysclass Window(QMainWindow): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.acceptDrops() # set the title self.setWindowTitle("Image") # setting the geometry of window self.setGeometry(0, 0, 400, 300) # creating label self.label = QLabel(self) # loading image self.pixmap = QPixmap('image.png') # adding image to label self.label.setPixmap(self.pixmap) # Optional, resize label to image size self.label.resize(self.pixmap.width(), self.pixmap.height()) # show all the widgets self.show()# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
