In this article we will see how we can get the auto default property of the QCommandLinkButton. If this property is set to true then the command link button is an auto default button. In some GUI styles a default button is drawn with an extra frame around it, up to 3 pixels or more. Qt automatically keeps this space free around auto-default buttons, i.e., auto-default buttons may have a slightly larger size hint. This property can be set with the help of setAutoDefault method.

In order to do this we use autoDefault method with the command link button object

Syntax : button.autoDefault()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It return bool

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, 500, 400)
  
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
  
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
  
  
    # method for components
    def UiComponents(self):
  
  
        # creating a command link button
        cl_button = QCommandLinkButton("Press", self)
  
        # setting geometry
        cl_button.setGeometry(250, 100, 150, 50)
  
        # making it checkable
        cl_button.setCheckable(True)
  
        # setting auto default property
        cl_button.setAutoDefault(True)
  
        # size
        size = QSize(30, 30)
  
        # setting icon size
        cl_button.setIconSize(size)
  
        # creating label
        label = QLabel("GeeksforGeeks", self)
  
        # setting label geometry
        label.setGeometry(50, 100, 200, 40)
  
        # making label multiline
        label.setWordWrap(True)
  
        # getting auto default property
        value = cl_button.autoDefault()
  
        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Auto Default : " + str(value))
  
  
  
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
