In this article we will see how we can set skin to check box who is in intermediate state and mouse hover over it. By default there is no image is associated with the check box, this skin appear only when mouse hover intermediate check box. Intermediate (indeterminate) state is the third state which is in-between checked and unchecked state which can added to check box with the help of setTristate method. In order to set skin we have to the style sheet code of check box, below is style sheet code.
QCheckBox::indeterminate::hover
{
border-image : url(image.png);
}
Below is the implementation.
Python3
# importing librariesfrom PyQt5.QtWidgets import *from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGuifrom PyQt5.QtGui import *from PyQt5.QtCore import *import sysclass 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 the check-box checkbox1 = QCheckBox('Geek ?', self) # setting geometry of check box checkbox1.setGeometry(200, 150, 100, 40) # setting tri-state check box checkbox1.setTristate(True) # changing style sheet code of check box # adding skin to indeterminate check box when mouse hover over it checkbox1.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox::indeterminate:hover" "{" "border-image : url(image.png);" "}")# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
