PyQt5 QSpinBox – Setting tablet tracking

In this article we will see how we can set tablet tracking to the spin box. By default tablet tracking is in disabled state although we can change this any time. If tablet tracking is switched off, tablet move events only occur if the stylus is in contact with the tablet, or at least one stylus button is pressed, while the stylus is being moved. If tablet tracking is switched on, tablet move events occur even while the stylus is hovering in proximity of the tablet, with no buttons pressed.

In order to do this we use setTabletTracking method with the spin box object.

Syntax : spin_box.setTabletTracking(True)

Argument : It takes bool as argument

Return : It returns None

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 tablet tracking to the spin box
        self.spin.setTabletTracking(True)
  
        # setting geometry to spin box
        self.spin.setGeometry(100, 100, 250, 40)
  
        # setting range to the spin box
        self.spin.setRange(1, 999999)
  
        # setting prefix to spin
        self.spin.setPrefix("PREFIX ")
  
        # setting suffix to spin
        self.spin.setSuffix(" SUFFIX")
  
        # creating a label
        label = QLabel(self)
  
        # making the label multi line
        label.setWordWrap(True)
  
        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 200, 60)
  
        # checking if spin box has tablet tracking
        check = self.spin.hasTabletTracking()
  
        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Has Tablet Tracking ? " + str(check))
  
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
