PyQt5 QSpinBox – Retrieving Description

In this article we will see how we can get the description of the spin box, description is the detailed information about the combo box which tells about the functionality use cases and other main information to understand the working of the spin box. Description is used by the programmer for better understandability of the program. setAccessibleDescription method is used to set the description.

In order to do this we use accessibleDescription method.

Syntax : spin_box.accessibleDescription()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns None

Below is the implementation

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

        # text for description
        text = " This is description of spin box "

        # adding description ot the spin box
        self.spin.setAccessibleDescription(text)

        # creating a label
        label = QLabel(self)

        # getting the description
        des = self.spin.accessibleDescription()

        # setting text to the label
        label.setText(des)

        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 300, 30)


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

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

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