In this article we will see how we can access the offset of shadow of the label, offset is basically distance between the shadow of the label and the label by default offset value is 8 although we can change it any time with the help of setOffset method.
In order to do this we use
offsetmethodSyntax : shadow.offset()
Here shadow is the QGraphicsDropShadowEffect objectArgument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns QPointF object as argument
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 background color of window # self.setStyleSheet("background-color : black;") # 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("Label", self) # setting alignment label.setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry(200, 100, 150, 60) # setting border label.setStyleSheet("border : 8px solid black") # creating a QGraphicsDropShadowEffect object shadow = QGraphicsDropShadowEffect() # setting blur radius shadow.setBlurRadius(20) # setting offset shadow.setOffset(100) # adding shadow to the label label.setGraphicsEffect(shadow) # creating label result = QLabel(self) # setting geometry result.setGeometry(100, 200, 350, 30) # getting shadow offset offset = shadow.offset() # showing text through label result.setText("Offset : " + str(offset)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
