In this article we will see how we can enable the accept of drops in spin box, we know we can make drag enabled using setDragEnabled
method with line edit object of spin box, but what is the use of dragging the text we can’t drop it anywhere. Allowing accept drop means that spin box has a property now to accept the drop text.
In order to do this we use setAcceptDrops
method with the spin box.
Syntax : line_edit.setAcceptDrops(True)
Argument : It takes bool as argument
Return: It returns None
Note : This method only make the accept drop property true in order to accept and display the text we have to add dragEnterEvent
and dropEvent
to spin box object.
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 prefix to spin
self .spin.setPrefix( "Prefix " )
# setting suffix to spin
self .spin.setSuffix( " Suffix" )
# allowing accept drops
self .spin.setAcceptDrops( True )
# creating another spin box
another_spin = QSpinBox( self )
# setting drag enabled
another_spin.lineEdit().setDragEnabled( True )
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
