PyQt5 QCommandLinkButton – Setting Help Text

In this article we will see how we can set the help text of the QCommandLinkButton. Help text is the text used to tell the other user about the usage information about the command link button. It contains the information which can be used to check the usage, limitation etc. In order to do this we use setWhatsThis method with the command link button object

Syntax : button.setWhatsThis(text) Argument : It takes string as argument Return : It return None

Below is the implementation 

Python3




# 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, 500, 400)
 
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
 
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
 
    # method for components
    def UiComponents(self):
 
        # creating a command link button
        cl_button = QCommandLinkButton("Press", self)
 
        # setting geometry
        cl_button.setGeometry(250, 100, 200, 50)
 
        # setting help text
        cl_button.setWhatsThis("Command Link Button for neveropen")
 
        
 
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
 
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
 
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
