In this article we will see how to make rectangular indicator of radio button. By default radio button indicator is circular in shape.
Below is the representation of normal radio button and a radio button whose indicator is rectangular.
In order to do this we have to change the style sheet code of indicator which is associated with the radio button object, below is the style sheet code.
QRadioButton::indicator { border : 1px solid black; width : 20px; height : 10px; border-radius : 1px; }
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 a radio button self .radio_button = QRadioButton( self ) # setting geometry of radio button self .radio_button.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 120 , 40 ) # setting text to radio button self .radio_button.setText( "Radio Button" ) # changing style sheet code of radio button # setting border to indicator of thickness 1px and of black color # and width and height and the border radius equal to thickness of border self .radio_button.setStyleSheet( "QRadioButton::indicator" "{" "border : 1px solid black;" "width : 20px;" "height : 10px;" "border-radius : 1px;" "}" ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
Output :
