In this article we will see how to create a button with image. Unlike icon which exist only at the left side, we will create a button which is covered with the image. In order to do so we will use setStyleSheet method to add image to background of the button.
Below is how normal button and a button with image looks like.
Syntax : button.setStyleSheet(“background-image : url(image.png);”)
Argument : It takes string as argument.
Action performed : It sets background image to the button.
Code :
# importing libraries from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * 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 a push button button = QPushButton("CLICK", self) # setting geometry of button button.setGeometry(200, 150, 100, 30) # adding action to a button button.clicked.connect(self.clickme) # setting image to the button button.setStyleSheet("background-image : url(image.png);") # action method def clickme(self): # printing pressed print("pressed") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
