PyQt5 – How to set RadioButton tooltip duration

In this article we will see how we can access the tool tip duration of the radio button. Tool tip is basically a message appear when we hover mouse over the radio button. It gives the tip and help the user to understand better about the radio button. Tool tip duration is basically the time for how long tool tip will appear.

In order to access the content of radio button tool tip we will use toolTipDuration method

Syntax : radio_button.toolTipDuration()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns integer

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 a radio button
        self.radio_button = QRadioButton("Radio button", self)
  
        # setting geometry of radio button
        self.radio_button.setGeometry(200, 150, 120, 40)
  
        # setting tool tip
        self.radio_button.setToolTip("Click to make it check")
  
        # setting tool tip duration
        self.radio_button.setToolTipDuration(2000)
  
        # creating a label
        label = QLabel(self)
  
        # setting geometry of the label
        label.setGeometry(200, 200, 300, 30)
  
        # accessing the tool tip duration
        duration = self.radio_button.toolTipDuration()
  
        # printing duration through label
        label.setText("Toll tip duration in millisecond = " + str(duration))
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
