PyQt5 – Check Box with Indicator at right side
In this article we will see how to set the indicator to the right of check box. Check box basically have two components first is indicator and other is the label by default indicator is at the left hand side. In order to make the indicator at the right hand side we have to change its layout direction from left to right side.
In order to do this we will use setLayoutDirection method.
Syntax : checkbox.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft)
Argument : It takes Qt object as argument.
Action performed : It will change the layout of check box.
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 the check-box checkbox = QCheckBox('Geek ?', self) # setting geometry of check box checkbox.setGeometry(200, 150, 100, 30) # changing position of indicator checkbox.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
