In this article we will see how we can set skin to the editable combo box when it is in off state. Skin is basically the background image but skin adjust its size according to the size of combo box. OFF state is when list view(item view) is not open, setEditable
method is used to make combo box editable. Skin will only appear the combo box is editable and it is in off state
In order to do this we have to change the style sheet code of the combo box, below is the style sheet code
QComboBox::editable:!on { border-image : url(image.png); }
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 check-able combo box object
self .combo_box = QComboBox( self )
# setting geometry of combo box
self .combo_box.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 200 , 80 )
# making combo box editable
self .combo_box.setEditable( True )
# geek list
geek_list = [ "Sayian" , "Super Sayian" , "Super Sayian 2" , "Super Sayian B" ]
# adding list of items to combo box
self .combo_box.addItems(geek_list)
# setting style sheet of combo box
# adding skin to the combo box when it is editable
# and when it in off state
self .combo_box.setStyleSheet( "QComboBox::editable:! on"
"{"
"border-image : url(image.png);"
"border : 1px solid black;"
"}" )
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
window.show() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
