In this article we will see how we can access the shadow color of the label, when we create a shadow to the label it is by default of black color although we can its color with the help of setColor method.
In order to access the shadow color of label with the help of
colormethodSyntax : shadow.color()
Here shadow is the QGraphicsDropShadowEffect objectArgument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns QColor object
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 border color shadow.setColor(Qt.green) # adding shadow to the label label.setGraphicsEffect(shadow) # creating label to show the color result = QLabel(self) # setting geometry result.setGeometry(100, 200, 350, 30) # getting shadow color shadow_color = shadow.color() # showing text through label result.setText("Shadow color : " + str(shadow_color)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
