PyQt5 QSpinBox – Getting Pixel ratio

In this article we will see how we can get the pixel ratio of the spin box, The device pixel ratio is the ratio between physical pixels and logical pixels of the spin box. Common values are 1 for normal-dpi displays and 2 for high-dpi “retina” displays.

In order to do this we use devicePixelRatio method

Syntax : spin_box.devicePixelRatio()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns integer

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")

        # getting pixel ratio
        pixel_ratio = self.spin.devicePixelRatio()

        # creating label
        label = QLabel(self)

        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 200, 70)

        # making it multi line label
        label.setWordWrap(True)

        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Pixel Ratio: " + str(pixel_ratio))

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

# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
window.spin.setFocus()
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())

Output :
