A CheckBox is an option button that can be toggled on (checked) or off (unchecked). Checkboxes are typically used to represent features in an application that can be enabled or disabled without affecting others.
The state of the checkbox can be set with the checked property.
In addition to the checked and unchecked states, there is a third state: partially checked. This state indicates that the regular checked/unchecked state can not be determined; generally because of other states that affect the checkbox. This state is useful when several child nodes are selected in a treeview, for example.
The partially checked state can be made available to the user by setting partiallyCheckedEnabled to true
, or set directly by
setting checkedState to Qt.PartiallyChecked
. checkedState behaves
identically to checked when partiallyCheckedEnabled is false
;
setting one will appropriately set the other.
The label is shown next to the checkbox, and you can set the label text using its text property.
Column { CheckBox { text: qsTr("Breakfast") checked: true } CheckBox { text: qsTr("Lunch") } CheckBox { text: qsTr("Dinner") checked: true } }
Whenever a CheckBox is clicked, it emits the clicked() signal.
You can create a custom appearance for a CheckBox by assigning a CheckBoxStyle.
activeFocusOnPress : bool |
This property is true
if the control takes the focus when it is pressed; forceActiveFocus() will be called on the control.
checked : bool |
This property is true
if the control is checked.
checkedState : int |
This property indicates the current checked state of the checkbox.
Possible values: Qt.UnChecked
- The checkbox is not checked (default). Qt.Checked
- The checkbox is checked. Qt.PartiallyChecked
- The checkbox is in a partially checked (or "mixed")
state.
The checked property also determines whether this property is Qt.Checked
or Qt.UnChecked
, and vice versa.
exclusiveGroup : ExclusiveGroup |
This property stores the ExclusiveGroup that the control belongs to.
[read-only] hovered : bool |
This property indicates whether the control is being hovered.
partiallyCheckedEnabled : bool |
This property determines whether the Qt.PartiallyChecked
state is available.
A checkbox may be in a partially checked state when the regular checked state can not be determined.
Setting checkedState to Qt.PartiallyChecked
will implicitly set this property to true
.
If this property is true
, checked will be false
.
By default, this property is false
.
pressed : bool |
This property is true
if the control is being pressed. Set this property to manually invoke a mouse click.
