In this article we will see how we can check the sorting enabled property of the QListWidget. QListWidget is a convenience class that provides a list view with a classic item-based interface for adding and removing items. QListWidget uses an internal model to manage each QListWidgetItem in the list. This property holds whether sorting is enabled, if this property is true, sorting is enabled for the list, if the property is false, sorting is not enabled. By default it is false alt, it can be changed with the help of setSortingEnabled method.
In order to do this we will use isSortingEnabled method with the list widget object. Syntax : list_widget.isSortingEnabled() Argument : It takes no argument Return : It returns bool
Below is the implementation
# importing libraries from PyQt5.QtWidgets 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 QListWidget
list_widget = QListWidget( self )
# setting geometry to it
list_widget.setGeometry( 50 , 70 , 150 , 60 )
# list widget items
item1 = QListWidgetItem("A")
item2 = QListWidgetItem("B")
item3 = QListWidgetItem("C")
# adding items to the list widget
list_widget.addItem(item1)
list_widget.addItem(item2)
list_widget.addItem(item3)
# setting sorting enabled
list_widget.setSortingEnabled( True )
# creating a label
label = QLabel("GeeksforGeeks", self )
# setting geometry to the label
label.setGeometry( 230 , 80 , 300 , 80 )
# making label multi line
label.setWordWrap( True )
# checking sorting enabled property
value = list_widget.isSortingEnabled()
# setting text to the label
label.setText("Is sorting Enabled : " + str (value))
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
