In this article we will see how to change the background color of the label when cursor will hover over it. When cursor will come upon the label it will change color to it and when cursor is not over the label, it goes back to it default color. In order to do this we have to change the style sheet code which is used with the label object, and have to set background color when mouse hover over it, below is the style sheet code.
QLabel::hover
{
background-color : lightgreen;
}
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 label label = QLabel("Hello Geeks", self) # setting geometry of the label label.setGeometry(200, 150, 100, 40) # setting background color to label when mouse hover over it label.setStyleSheet("QLabel::hover" "{" "background-color : lightgreen;" "}")# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
