Check box basically have two components that are label and a indicator. By default there is no specific color is set to the indicator although we can change the color of the indicator. Below is the representation of normal indicator vs the colored indicator.
In order to do this we have to add the background color to the indicator of the check box which can be done using style sheet of indicator below is the style sheet code which can be used with the check box object.
QCheckBox::indicator
{
background-color : lightgreen;
}
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 the check-box checkbox = QCheckBox('Geek ?', self) # setting geometry of check box checkbox.setGeometry(200, 150, 100, 30) # adding background color to indicator checkbox.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox::indicator" "{" "background-color : lightgreen;" "}") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
