When we create a check box by default indicator is at left hand side which we call as left to right direction although we can change its direction using setLayoutDirection
method. isRightToLeft
method is used to check if the layout direction is from right to left or not, it returns False for the default layout direction.
Syntax : checkbox.isRightToLeft()
Argument : It takes no argument.
Return : It returns bool, True if layout direction is right to left else False.
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
checkbox = QCheckBox( 'Geek ?' , self )
# setting geometry of check box
checkbox.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 100 , 30 )
# checking direction
check = checkbox.isRightToLeft()
# printing the check
print ( "Before changing direction : " + str (check))
# changing position of indicator
checkbox.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft)
# checking direction
check = checkbox.isRightToLeft()
# printing the check
print ( "After changing direction : " + str (check))
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
|
Output :
Before changing direction : False After changing direction : True
