In this article we will see how we can set the letter spacing in the text of spin box, letter spacing is the distance(gap) in-between two consecutive letter. Spacing can be change by specifying the pixels or the percentage. In order to set the spacing using pixels we use QFont.AbsoluteSpacing is the type of spacing and for setting spacing using percentage we use QFont.PercentageSpacing is the type of spacing. In order to do this we use the setLetterSpacing method with the QFont object of the spin box
Syntax : font.setLetterSpacing(type, value) Argument : It takes two argument, first is type of spacing and other is the floating value Return : It returns None
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 spin box self .spin = QSpinBox( self ) # setting geometry to spin box self .spin.setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 250 , 40 ) # setting range to the spin box self .spin.setRange( 0 , 999999 ) # setting prefix to spin self .spin.setPrefix("PREFIX ") # setting suffix to spin self .spin.setSuffix(" SUFFIX") # getting font of the spin box font = self .spin.font() # setting letter spacing font.setLetterSpacing(QFont.AbsoluteSpacing, 8 ) # reassigning this font to the spin box self .spin.setFont(font) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
