Syntax : spin_box.setDisabled(bool) Argument : It takes bool as argument Return : It returns None

Implementation steps : 1. Create a spin box 2. Create a push button 3. Add action to the push button 4. Inside the action make the spin box disabled Below is the implementation

Python3

# importing libraries
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui
from PyQt5.QtGui 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 spin box
        self.spin = QSpinBox(self)
 
        # setting geometry to spin box
        self.spin.setGeometry(100, 100, 250, 40)
 
        # setting prefix to spin
        self.spin.setPrefix("Prefix ")
 
        # setting suffix to spin
        self.spin.setSuffix(" Suffix")
 
        # setting range to spin
        self.spin.setRange(0, 99999)
 
        # creating push button
        button = QPushButton("Press", self)
 
        # setting button geometry
        button.setGeometry(100, 160, 100, 40)
 
        # adding action to the push button
        button.clicked.connect(self.push_method)
 
    # method called by push button
    def push_method(self):
 
        # making spin box disabled
        self.spin.setDisabled(True)
 
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
 
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
 
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
