In this article we will see how we can set different tooltip to the different items of the combo box. We can set tooltip to the combo box with the help of setToolTip method and for setting tooltip to the view part we have to use view object with this method. Below is the representation of how individual item tool tip look like.
In order to do we have to use the following method
combo_box.setItemData(index, tool_tip_text, QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole) Here index is the index of the item tool_tip_text is the string which show as tool tip
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 combo box object self.combo_box = QComboBox(self) # setting geometry of combo box self.combo_box.setGeometry(200, 150, 150, 30) # geek list geek_list = ["Sayian", "Super Sayian", "Super Sayian 2", "Super Sayian B"] # adding list of items to combo box self.combo_box.addItems(geek_list) # setting tool tip to each item self.combo_box.setItemData(0, "This is a tooltip for item[0]", QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole) self.combo_box.setItemData(1, "This is a tooltip for item[1]", QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole) self.combo_box.setItemData(2, "This is a tooltip for item[2]", QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole) self.combo_box.setItemData(3, "This is a tooltip for item[3]", QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() window.show() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
