In this article we will see how to change the size of indicator. Indicator is the part of check box although if we change the size of check box with the help of resize method or setGeometry method, but it will change the size of check box but not the indicator.
In order to change the size of indicator we have to change the height and width in the style sheet of the indicator which is used with check box object. Below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox::indicator
{
width : 40px;
height : 40px;
}
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, 80) # setting stylesheet # changing width and height of indicator checkbox.setStyleSheet("QCheckBox::indicator" "{" "width :40px;" "height : 40px;" "}") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
