PyQt5 QCommandLinkButton – Setting Animate Click Property

In this article we will see how we can set animate click property of the QCommandLinkButton. This property performs an animated click i.e the button is pressed immediately, and released after some milliseconds later (the default is 100 ms). Calling this function again before the button is released resets the release timer.

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

Syntax : button.animateClick(n)

Argument : It takes integer as argument

Return : It returns None

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("GeeksforGeeks", self)

        # setting geometry
        cl_button.setGeometry(200, 100, 200, 50)

        # setting animate click property
        cl_button.animateClick(200)




# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)

# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()

# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
