In this article we will see how we can override the window flags of the spin box. Spin box has certain flags, flags specifies the widget properties so overriding the flags means to change the properties. For example if user set Qt.CoverWindow flag to spin box, spin box will not be visible.
In order to do this we use overrideWindowFlags
method with the spin box object.
Syntax : spin_box.overrideWindowFlags(flag)
Argument : It takes Qt flags as argument
Return : It returns None
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( 1 , 999999 )
# setting prefix to spin
self .spin.setPrefix( "PREFIX " )
# setting suffix to spin
self .spin.setSuffix( " SUFFIX" )
# overriding the spin box's window flags
self .spin.overrideWindowFlags(Qt.CoverWindow)
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
