Good night.
I have seen some programs with new borderless designs and still you can make use of resizing.
At the moment I know that to remove the borders of a pyqt program we use:
QtCore.Qt.FramelessWindowHint
And that to change the size of a window use QSizeGrip.
But how can we resize a window without borders?
This is the code that I use to remove the border of a window but after that I have not found information on how to do it in pyqt5.
I hope you can help me with an example of how to solve this problem
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QMainWindow,QApplication
from PyQt5 import QtCore
class Main(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self):
QMainWindow.__init__(self)
self.setWindowFlags(QtCore.Qt.FramelessWindowHint)
app = QApplication([])
m = Main()
m.show()
m.resize(800,600)
app.exec_()
If you use a QMainWindow you can add a QStatusBar (which automatically adds a QSizeGrip) just by calling statusBar():
This function creates and returns an empty status bar if the status bar does not exist.
Otherwise, you can manually add grips, and their interaction is done automatically based on their position. In the following example I'm adding 4 grips, one for each corner, and then I move them each time the window is resized.
class Main(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self):
QMainWindow.__init__(self)
self.setWindowFlags(QtCore.Qt.FramelessWindowHint)
self.gripSize = 16
self.grips = []
for i in range(4):
grip = QSizeGrip(self)
grip.resize(self.gripSize, self.gripSize)
self.grips.append(grip)
def resizeEvent(self, event):
QMainWindow.resizeEvent(self, event)
rect = self.rect()
# top left grip doesn't need to be moved...
# top right
self.grips[1].move(rect.right() - self.gripSize, 0)
# bottom right
self.grips[2].move(
rect.right() - self.gripSize, rect.bottom() - self.gripSize)
# bottom left
self.grips[3].move(0, rect.bottom() - self.gripSize)
UPDATE
Based on comments, also side-resizing is required. To do so a good solution is to create a custom widget that behaves similarly to QSizeGrip, but for vertical/horizontal resizing only.
For better implementation I changed the code above, used a gripSize to construct an "inner" rectangle and, based on it, change the geometry of all widgets, for both corners and sides.
Here you can see the "outer" rectangle and the "inner" rectangle used for geometry computations:
Then you can create all geometries, for QSizeGrip widgets (in light blue):
And for custom side widgets:
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
class SideGrip(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent, edge):
QtWidgets.QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
if edge == QtCore.Qt.LeftEdge:
self.setCursor(QtCore.Qt.SizeHorCursor)
self.resizeFunc = self.resizeLeft
elif edge == QtCore.Qt.TopEdge:
self.setCursor(QtCore.Qt.SizeVerCursor)
self.resizeFunc = self.resizeTop
elif edge == QtCore.Qt.RightEdge:
self.setCursor(QtCore.Qt.SizeHorCursor)
self.resizeFunc = self.resizeRight
else:
self.setCursor(QtCore.Qt.SizeVerCursor)
self.resizeFunc = self.resizeBottom
self.mousePos = None
def resizeLeft(self, delta):
window = self.window()
width = max(window.minimumWidth(), window.width() - delta.x())
geo = window.geometry()
geo.setLeft(geo.right() - width)
window.setGeometry(geo)
def resizeTop(self, delta):
window = self.window()
height = max(window.minimumHeight(), window.height() - delta.y())
geo = window.geometry()
geo.setTop(geo.bottom() - height)
window.setGeometry(geo)
def resizeRight(self, delta):
window = self.window()
width = max(window.minimumWidth(), window.width() + delta.x())
window.resize(width, window.height())
def resizeBottom(self, delta):
window = self.window()
height = max(window.minimumHeight(), window.height() + delta.y())
window.resize(window.width(), height)
def mousePressEvent(self, event):
if event.button() == QtCore.Qt.LeftButton:
self.mousePos = event.pos()
def mouseMoveEvent(self, event):
if self.mousePos is not None:
delta = event.pos() - self.mousePos
self.resizeFunc(delta)
def mouseReleaseEvent(self, event):
self.mousePos = None

self.sideGrips = [
SideGrip(self, QtCore.Qt.LeftEdge),
SideGrip(self, QtCore.Qt.TopEdge),
SideGrip(self, QtCore.Qt.RightEdge),
SideGrip(self, QtCore.Qt.BottomEdge),
]
# corner grips should be "on top" of everything, otherwise the side grips
# will take precedence on mouse events, so we are adding them *after*;
# alternatively, widget.raise_() can be used

self.updateGrips()
def updateGrips(self):

outRect = self.rect()
# an "inner" rect used for reference to set the geometries of size grips
inRect = outRect.adjusted(self.gripSize, self.gripSize,
-self.gripSize, -self.gripSize)
# top left
self.cornerGrips[0].setGeometry(
QtCore.QRect(outRect.topLeft(), inRect.topLeft()))
# top right
self.cornerGrips[1].setGeometry(
QtCore.QRect(outRect.topRight(), inRect.topRight()).normalized())
# bottom right
self.cornerGrips[2].setGeometry(

# bottom left

# right edge
self.sideGrips[2].setGeometry(
inRect.left() + inRect.width(),
inRect.top(), self.gripSize, inRect.height())
# bottom edge

def resizeEvent(self, event):
QtWidgets.QMainWindow.resizeEvent(self, event)
self.updateGrips()

app.exec_()
to hide the QSizeGrip on the corners where they shouldn't be showing, you can just change the background color of the QSizeGrip to camouflage them to the background. add this to each of the corners of musicamante's answer:
self.cornerGrips[0].setStyleSheet("""
background-color: transparent;
""")
I am working on my first PyQt project and I would like to come up with a way to provide the user with success or error messages when they complete tasks. With Javascript in the past, I used Toastr and I was curious if there is anything like it for Python applications. I considered using the QDialog class in PyQt, but I would rather not have separate windows as popups if possible since even modeless dialog windows would be distracting for the user.
UPDATE: I've updated the code, making it possible to show desktop-wise notifications (see below).
Implementing a desktop-aware toaster like widget is not impossible, but presents some issues that are platform dependent. On the other hand, a client-side one is easier.
I've created a small class that is able to show a notification based on the top level window of the current widget, with the possibility to set the message text, the icon, and if the notification is user-closable. I also added a nice opacity animation, that is common in such systems.
Its main use is based on a static method, similarly to what QMessageBox does, but it can also be implemented in a similar fashion by adding other features.
UPDATE
I realized that making a desktop-wise notification is not that hard (but some care is required for cross-platform development, I'll leave that up to the programmer).
The following is the updated code that allows using None as a parent for the class, making the notification a desktop widget instead of a child widget of an existing Qt one. If you're reading this and you're not interested in such a feature, just check the editing history for the original (and slightly simpler) code.

There is nothing like that even in Qt 6.
Anyways, you said "but I would rather not have separate windows as popups if possible since even modeless dialog windows would be distracting for the user.".
Yes, there are two things necessary for the toast, and there is a solution.
Should not be a separated window - Qt.SubWindow
self.setWindowFlags(Qt.SubWindow)
Should ignore the mouse event, be unable to focus - Qt.WA_TransparentForMouseEvents
self.setAttribute(Qt.WA_TransparentForMouseEvents, True)
Based on those rules, i made the toast that user can set the text, font, color(text or background) of it.
Here is my repo if you want to check the detail: https://github.com/yjg30737/pyqt-toast
coding a scrollable frame with a ttk.notebook inside works.
But the scrollbar / notebook has a fixed size. How can I change it?
from tkinter import Canvas, Scrollbar, Button, Tk
from tkinter.ttk import Frame, Notebook
class VerticalScrolledFrame(Frame):
"""A pure Tkinter scrollable frame that actually works!
* Use the 'interior' attribute to place widgets inside the scrollable frame
* Construct and pack/place/grid normally
* This frame only allows vertical scrolling
"""
def __init__(self, parent, *args, **kw):
Frame.__init__(self, parent, *args, **kw)
# create a canvas object and a vertical scrollbar for scrolling it
vscrollbar = Scrollbar(self, orient='vertical')
vscrollbar.pack(fill='y', side='right', expand='false')
canvas = Canvas(self, bd=0, highlightthickness=0,
yscrollcommand=vscrollbar.set)
canvas.pack(side='left', fill='both', expand='true')
vscrollbar.config(command=canvas.yview)
# reset the view
canvas.xview_moveto(0)
canvas.yview_moveto(0)
# create a frame inside the canvas which will be scrolled with it
self.interior = interior = Frame(canvas)
interior_id = canvas.create_window(0, 0, window=interior,
anchor='nw')
# track changes to the canvas and frame width and sync them,
# also updating the scrollbar
def _configure_interior(event):
# update the scrollbars to match the size of the inner frame
size = (interior.winfo_reqwidth(), interior.winfo_reqheight())
canvas.config(scrollregion="0 0 %s %s" % size)
if interior.winfo_reqwidth() != canvas.winfo_width():
# update the canvas's width to fit the inner frame
canvas.config(width=interior.winfo_reqwidth())
interior.bind('<Configure>', _configure_interior)
def _configure_canvas(event):
if interior.winfo_reqwidth() != canvas.winfo_width():
# update the inner frame's width to fill the canvas
canvas.itemconfigure(interior_id, width=canvas.winfo_width())
canvas.bind('<Configure>', _configure_canvas)
root = Tk()
class Overview:
def __init__(self):
#mainframe to make a scrollable window
self.mainframe = VerticalScrolledFrame(root)
self.mainframe.grid(row=0, column=0)
# create a notebook
self.TNotebook_Overview = Notebook(self.mainframe.interior)
self.TNotebook_Overview.grid(row=0, column=0)
self.TNotebook_Overview.configure(takefocus="")
self.Frame_Overview = Frame(self.TNotebook_Overview)
self.TNotebook_Overview.add(self.Frame_Overview)
self.TNotebook_Overview.tab(0, text="Table", compound="left",underline="-1", )
buttons = []
for i in range(30):
buttons.append(Button(self.Frame_Overview, text="Button " + str(i)))
buttons[-1].grid(column=0, row=i)
if __name__ == "__main__":
ov = Overview()
root.title('Overview Items Database')
root.geometry('800x800+10+10')
root.configure(background="#4C7274")
root.grab_set()
root.mainloop()
I expect an expanded scrollable notebook/frame filled entire Tk() window.
Because the "ai" of stackoverflow don't allow use code from another thread, here is code https://pastebin.com/ykJGViAz
Inside init, do this instead
self.mainframe.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")
self.TNotebook_Overview.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")
This tells the frame to fill as much space as it needs
Just add this in the third line of init in the class overview:
self.mainframe.pack(fill = BOTH, expand = 1)
I need to know when the Canvas is resized (eg when the master frame gets maximized) the new Canvas window size.
Unfortunately, if I try self.canvas['width'] it always seems to me I get back the width it had whenever I initialized it and not the current width.
How do I get the current Canvas window dimensions?
When you retrieve self.canvas['width'], you are asking tkinter to give you the configured width of the widget, not the actual width. For the actual width you can use .winfo_width().
If you want to know when the canvas is resized, you can add a binding to the <Configure> event on the widget. The event object that is passed to the binding has a width attribute which also has the actual width of the widget.
Here's an example:
import tkinter as tk
root = tk.Tk()
canvas = tk.Canvas(root, width=200, height=200, background="bisque")
canvas.pack(side="bottom", fill="both", expand=True)
canvas.create_text(10, 30, anchor="sw", tags=["event"])
canvas.create_text(10, 30, anchor="nw", tags=["cget"])
def show_width(event):
canvas.itemconfigure("event", text="event.width: %s" % event.width)
canvas.itemconfigure("cget", text="winfo_width: %s" % event.widget.winfo_width())
canvas.bind("<Configure>", show_width)
root.mainloop()
one possible solution:
try:
import Tkinter as tk
except:
import tkinter as tk
class myCanvas(tk.Frame):
def __init__(self, root):
#self.root = root
self.w = 600
self.h = 400
self.canvas = tk.Canvas(root, width=self.w, height=self.h)
self.canvas.pack( fill=tk.BOTH, expand=tk.YES)
root.bind('<Configure>', self.resize)
def resize(self, event):
self.w = event.width
self.h = event.height
print ('width = {}, height = {}'.format(self.w, self.h))
root = tk.Tk()
root.title('myCanvas')
myCanvas(root)
root.mainloop()
Notice that the size informed by the event is 2 pixels wider in either direction. That's the border, I suppose.
I am lost with my PyQT programm. I want to display SVG image on full screen, but I need to be able to set the scale and position of the image and rest of the screen fill with black colour.
I use QSvgWidget and regular QWidget on top of each other, but It is not a good solution, because it runs as two processes and two separate windows.
Could you tell me how to make this with only one widget
import sys, os
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtSvg
class Display(QtSvg.QSvgWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(Display, self).__init__(parent)
def main():
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
black = QtGui.QWidget() #setting background with widget
black.showFullScreen()
form = Display()
form.setWindowTitle("Display SVG Layer")
form.showFullScreen()
form.setStyleSheet("background-color:black;")
form.load("E:\example.svg")
form.move(100,0)
form.resize(1900,1000)
app.exec_()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
perhaps You can use QGraphicsView and QGraphicsScene:
class MyGraphicsView(QGraphicsView):
def __init__(self, w, h, parent=None):
QGraphicsView.__init__(self, parent)
self.setGeometry(0, 0, w, h) # screen size
class MyGraphicsScene(QGraphicsScene):
def __init__(self, w, h, parent = None):
QGraphicsScene.__init__(self,parent)
self.setSceneRect(0, 0, w, h) # screen size
self.backgroundPen = QPen(QColor(Qt.black))
self.backgroundBrush = QBrush(QColor(Qt.black))
self.textPen = QPen(QColor(Qt.lightGray))
self.textPen.setWidth(1)
self.textBrush = QBrush(QColor(Qt.lightGray))
self.textFont = QFont("Helvetica", 14, )
# paint the background
self.addRect(0,0,self.width(), self.height(), self.backgroundPen, self.backgroundBrush)
# paint the svg-title
self.svgTitle = self.addSimpleText('Display SVG Layer', self.textFont)
self.svgTitle.setPen(self.textPen)
self.svgTitle.setBrush(self.textBrush)
self.svgTitle.setPos(200,75)
# paint the svg
self.svgItem = QGraphicsSvgItem('./example.svg')
'''
edit:
if necessary, get the size of the svgItem to calculate
scale factor and position
'''
self.svgSize = self.svgItem.renderer().defaultSize()
self.svgItem.setScale(0.25) # scale the svg to an appropriate size
self.addItem(self.svgItem)
self.svgItem.setPos(200, 125)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
screen_size = app.primaryScreen().size()
width = screen_size.width()
height = screen_size.height()
graphicsScene = MyGraphicsScene(width, height)
graphicsView = MyGraphicsView(width, height)
graphicsView.setScene(graphicsScene)
graphicsView.show()
app.exec_()
