In this article we will see how we can set different tooltip to the different items of the combo box. We can set tooltip to the combo box with the help of setToolTip
method and for setting tooltip to the view part we have to use view object with this method. Below is the representation of how individual item tool tip look like.
In order to do we have to use the following method
combo_box.setItemData(index, tool_tip_text, QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole) Here index is the index of the item tool_tip_text is the string which show as tool tip
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 combo box object
self .combo_box = QComboBox( self )
# setting geometry of combo box
self .combo_box.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 150 , 30 )
# 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 tool tip to each item
self .combo_box.setItemData( 0 , "This is a tooltip for item[0]" , QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole)
self .combo_box.setItemData( 1 , "This is a tooltip for item[1]" , QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole)
self .combo_box.setItemData( 2 , "This is a tooltip for item[2]" , QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole)
self .combo_box.setItemData( 3 , "This is a tooltip for item[3]" , QtCore.Qt.ToolTipRole)
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
window.show() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())

Output :
