PyQt5 – RadioButton ToolTip duration

In this article we will see how we can set tool tip duration to the radio button. Tool tip is basically a message appear when we hover mouse over the radio button, tool tip gives the tip and help the user to understand better about the radio button. Tool tip duration is basically the time for how long tool tip will appear

In order to do set tool tip duration to the radio button we will use setToolTipDuration method.

Syntax : radio_button.setToolTipDuration(n)

Argument : It takes integer as argument which refer to milliseconds

Action performed : It will set time duration to the tool tip of radio button

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 a radio button
        self.radio_button = QRadioButton("Radio button", self)

        # setting geometry of radio button
        self.radio_button.setGeometry(200, 150, 120, 40)

        # setting tool tip
        self.radio_button.setToolTip("Click to make it check")

        # setting tool tip duration
        self.radio_button.setToolTipDuration(2000)

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

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

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

Output :
