In this article we will see how to set skin to the checkbox when it is in indeterminate state. By default a black box symbol is placed for the indeterminate indicator although we can change it in-place of image. Skin is basically background image which can adjust it self according to the size of indicator of check box.
In order to do this we have to change the style sheet code, below is the style sheet code.
QCheckBox::indicator::indeterminate { border-image : url(image.png) }
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 the check-box
checkbox1 = QCheckBox( 'Geek ?' , self )
# setting tristate check box
checkbox1.setTristate( True )
# setting geometry of check box
checkbox1.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 100 , 40 )
# changing style sheet code of check box
# adding skin to indeterminate indicator
checkbox1.setStyleSheet( "QCheckBox::indicator:indeterminate"
"{"
"border-image : url(image.png);"
"}" )
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
