Currently working on a graphical user interface. I am trying to make the layout out of 3 QFrames.
As seen in the screenshot below, the yellow frame is on the right side. I would like that frame to be on top of the right frame. (On top of the numpad, taking the whole horizontal space)
Also, for the numpad buttons on the right frame. I would like them to be as close to each other as they can be, like a numpad on a keyboard. How would I adjust the grid to do that?
EDITED
This is how I want the outcome to be. Where the red frame is the rightTopFrame (Yellow frame in first picture).
Code:
def layoutUI(self):
### Right Top Frame
self.rightTopFrame = QFrame()
self.rightTopFrame.resize(1,1)
self.rightTopFrame.setStyleSheet("background-color: yellow")
### Left Grid
self.leftGrid = QGridLayout()
self.leftGrid.setColumnMinimumWidth(10, 10)
self.leftGrid.setRowMinimumHeight(1, 1)
# Run, Stop, Speed layout
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b1, 0, 0)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b2, 0, 2)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b3, 1, 0)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.l1, 1, 1)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b4, 1, 2)
# pl (Pieces and Length) layout
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b5, 2, 0)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.l2, 2, 1)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b6, 2, 2)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b7, 3, 0)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.l3, 3, 1)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b8, 3, 2)
# Manual
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.l4, 4, 1)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b9, 5, 0)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b10, 5, 1)
self.leftGrid.addWidget(self.b11, 5, 2)
### Right Grid
self.rightGrid = QGridLayout()
self.rightGrid.setColumnMinimumWidth(0, 0)
self.rightGrid.setRowMinimumHeight(1, 1)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np1, 2, 0)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np2, 2, 1)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np3, 2, 2)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np4, 3, 0)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np5, 3, 1)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np6, 3, 2)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np7, 4, 0)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np8, 4, 1)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np9, 4, 2)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.np0, 5, 1)
self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.npCl, 5, 0)
#self.rightGrid.addWidget(self.bExit, 0, 2)
### Left Frame
self.leftFrame = QFrame()
self.leftFrame.resize(150,550)
#self.leftFrame.setStyleSheet("background-color: red")
self.leftFrame.setLayout(self.leftGrid)
### Right Frame
self.rightFrame = QFrame()
self.rightFrame.resize(15,50)
#self.rightFrame.setStyleSheet("background-color: green")
self.rightFrame.setLayout(self.rightGrid)
### Main Grid
self.mainGrid = QGridLayout()
self.mainGrid.setColumnMinimumWidth(10, 0)
self.mainGrid.addWidget(self.leftFrame)
self.mainGrid.addWidget(self.rightFrame)
self.mainGrid.addWidget(self.rightTopFrame)
### Main Interface
self.setGeometry(300, 200, 850, 450)
self.setLayout(self.mainGrid)
self.setStyleSheet("background-color: %s" % backgroundColor)
self.setWindowTitle('Signal & slot')
self.show()
In order for the frame to be underneath the numpad you must place them as a base. For the buttons to be together you must zero the space in the
QGridLayout
that contains them({your layout}.setSpacing(0)
), in addition to addingQSpacerItem
around the QGridLayout. If you have any questions, I'll leave you the complete code.Output:
