In this article we will see how we can hide the combo box when any other item get selected. Sometimes when the need of combo box get fulfilled it should get removed but removing it will not allow us to reuse it therefore hiding it is a better option.
In order to hide the combo box when item get selected we have to do the following – 1. Create a combo box 2. Add items to the combo box 3. Add action to the combo box 4. Inside the combo box hide the combo box with the help of hide method
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 , 600 , 400 )
# calling method
self .UiComponents()
# showing all the widgets
self .show()
# method for widgets
def UiComponents( self ):
# creating a combo box widget
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"]
# making it editable
self .combo_box.setEditable( True )
# adding list of items to combo box
self .combo_box.addItems(geek_list)
# adding action to combo box
self .combo_box.activated.connect( self .do_something)
# method called by combo box
def do_something( self ):
# hiding the combo box
self .combo_box.hide()
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
