In this article we will see how we can check if the given character in the font of the spin box is in UTF-32 format. UTF-32 is a fixed-length encoding used to encode Unicode code points that uses exactly 32 bits per code point. UTF-32 is a fixed-length encoding, in contrast to all other Unicode transformation formats, which are variable-length encodings.

In order to do this we use inFontUcs4 method with the spin box’s QFontMetrics object.

Syntax : font_metrics.inFontUcs4(unit_character)

Argument : It takes integer as argument

Return : It returns 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, 600, 400)
  
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
  
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
  
        # method for widgets
    def UiComponents(self):
        # creating spin box
        self.spin = QSpinBox(self)
  
        # setting geometry to spin box
        self.spin.setGeometry(100, 100, 250, 40)
  
        # setting range to the spin box
        self.spin.setRange(0, 999999)
  
        # setting prefix to spin
        self.spin.setPrefix("PREFIX ")
  
        # setting suffix to spin
        self.spin.setSuffix(" SUFFIX")
  
        # creating a label
        label = QLabel(self)
  
        # making label multi line
        label.setWordWrap(True)
  
        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 300, 60)
  
        # getting font metrics
        f_metrics = self.spin.fontMetrics()
  
        # checking if the character is in the font
        check = f_metrics.inFontUcs4(1)
  
        # setting text to the label
        label.setText(" UTF Format  : " + str(check))
  
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
