PyQt5 QDoubleSpinBox – Setting Step Type Property

0 2 1 minute read

In this article we will see how we can set the step type property of the QDoubleSpinBox. This property holds the step type. The step type can be single step or adaptive decimal step. By default when we change the value it get change by whole number not by the decimal value although we can change this with the help of step-type property.

In order to do this we will use setStepType method with the QDateTimeEdit object.

Syntax : dd_spin.setStepType(step_type)

Argument : It takes step type object as argument

Return : It returns None

Below is the implementation

        # setting geometry 
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 500, 400)

        # creating double spin box 
        d_spin = QDoubleSpinBox(self) 
  
        # setting geometry to the double spin box 
        d_spin.setGeometry(100, 100, 150, 40) 
          
        # step type 
        step_type = QAbstractSpinBox.AdaptiveDecimalStepType 
  
        # adaptive step type 
        d_spin.setStepType(step_type) 
  
        # creating a label 
        label = QLabel("zambiatek", self) 
  
        # setting geometry to the label 
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 300, 80) 
  
        # making label multi line 
        label.setWordWrap(True) 
  
         
  
  
# create pyqt5 app 
App = QApplication(sys.argv) 
  
# create the instance of our Window 
window = Window() 
  
# start the app 
sys.exit(App.exec())
