PyQt5 QListWidget – Resetting Horizontal Scroll Mode Property

In this article we will see how we can reset horizontal scroll mode 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 controls how the view scroll its contents horizontally. Scrolling can be done either per pixel or per item. Its default value comes from the style via the QStyle.SH_ItemView_ScrollMode style hint. It can be set with the help of setHorizontalScrollMode method. Resetting means to revert it back to default state.

In order to do this we will use resetHorizontalScrollMode method with the list widget object. Syntax : list_widget.resetHorizontalScrollMode() Argument : It takes no argument Return : It returns None

Below is the implementation 

Python3

# importing libraries
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui

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, 80)

        # list widget items
        item1 = QListWidgetItem("PyQt5 Geeks for Geeks")
        item2 = QListWidgetItem("B")
        item3 = QListWidgetItem("C")
        item4 = QListWidgetItem("D")

        # adding items to the list widget
        list_widget.addItem(item1)
        list_widget.addItem(item2)
        list_widget.addItem(item3)
        list_widget.addItem(item4)

        # setting horizontal scroll mode
        list_widget.setHorizontalScrollMode(QAbstractItemView.ScrollPerPixel)

        # resetting horizontal scroll mode
        list_widget.resetHorizontalScrollMode()

        # creating a label
        label = QLabel("GeeksforGeeks", self)

        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(230, 80, 280, 80)

        # making label multi line
        label.setWordWrap(True)

        # getting horizontal scroll mode property
        value = list_widget.horizontalScrollMode()

        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Horizontal Scroll Mode : " + str(value))





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

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

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

Output :
