PyQt5 QSpinBox – How to get content margins

In this article we will see how we can get the content margins of spin box, content margins is the margin between the content and the outer border. By default the content margins of spin box is set to 0 for each side although we can change this using setContentsMargins method.

In order to do this we use contentsMargins method.

Syntax : spin_box.contentsMargins()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns QMargin 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 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 spin box
        self.spin = QSpinBox(self)
  
        # setting geometry to spin box
        self.spin.setGeometry(100, 100, 250, 40)
  
        # setting range to the spin box
        self.spin.setRange(0, 999999)
  
        # setting prefix to spin
        self.spin.setPrefix("Prefix ")
  
        # setting suffix to spin
        self.spin.setSuffix(" Suffix")
  
        # creating label
        label = QLabel(self)
  
        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 200, 70)
  
        # making it multi line label
        label.setWordWrap(True)
  
        # getting content margins
        margin = self.spin.contentsMargins()
  
        # setting text to the label
        label.setText(str(margin))
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
window.spin.setFocus()
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
