In this article we will see how we can set skin to the indicator of radio button., indicator is the part of the radio button which tells radio button is checked or not. Unlike background image skin adjust itself according to the size of indicator. Below is the representation of background image indicator vs the indicator with skin.
Note : When we alter style sheet of indicator shape changes to square.
In order to do this we have to change the style sheet code of the indicator associated with the radio button object, below is the style sheet code.
QRadioButton::indicator { 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 radio button
self .radio_button = QRadioButton( self )
# setting geometry of radio button
self .radio_button.setGeometry( 200 , 150 , 120 , 40 )
# setting text to radio button
self .radio_button.setText( "Radio Button" )
# changing style sheet code of radio button
# adding border image to the indicator
self .radio_button.setStyleSheet( "QRadioButton::indicator"
"{"
"border-image : url(image.png)"
"}" )
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
