Python Qt5 : QLCDNumber and QDial example.

This tutorial uses a simple example of QLCDNumber and QDial.
The steps start with create the QWidget with the QLCDNumber and QDial.
You need to set geometry for both and connect the dial with valueChanged.
Finally you need to use show to see the QWidget.
The result is show into the next screenshot:

Let see the source code:

import sys
from PyQt5.QtCore import Qt
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import (QWidget, QLCDNumber, QDial, QApplication)

class QLCDNumber_QDial(QWidget):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.initUi()

    def initUi(self):
        the_lcd = QLCDNumber(self)
        the_dial = QDial(self)

        self.setGeometry(150, 100, 220, 100)
        self.setWindowTitle('QLCDNumber')

        the_lcd.setGeometry(10,10,70,70)
        the_dial.setGeometry(140,10,70,70)

        the_dial.valueChanged.connect(the_lcd.display)

        self.show()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    run = QLCDNumber_QDial() 
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Python Qt5 : QColorDialog example.

Today I will show you how to use the QColorDialog and clipboard with PyQt5.
You can read documentation from the official website.
This example used a tray icon with actions for each type of code color.
The code of color is put into clipboard area and print on the shell.
I use two ways to get the code of color:

• parse the result of currentColor depends by type of color codel;
• get the code of color by a special function from QColorDialog;

To select the color I want to use is need to use the QColorDialog:

Let's see the source code:

from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *

# create the application
app = QApplication([])
app.setQuitOnLastWindowClosed(False)

# get the icon file
icon = QIcon("icon.png")

# create clipboard
clipboard = QApplication.clipboard()
# create dialog color
dialog = QColorDialog()

# create functions to get parsing color
def get_color_hex():
    if dialog.exec_():
        color = dialog.currentColor()
        clipboard.setText(color.name())
        print(clipboard.text())

def get_color_rgb():
    if dialog.exec_():
        color = dialog.currentColor()
        clipboard.setText("rgb(%d, %d, %d)" % (
            color.red(), color.green(), color.blue()
        ))
        print(clipboard.text())

def get_color_hsv():
    if dialog.exec_():
        color = dialog.currentColor()
        clipboard.setText("hsv(%d, %d, %d)" % (
            color.hue(), color.saturation(), color.value()
        ))
        print(clipboard.text())
# create function to use getCmyk 
def get_color_getCmyk():
    if dialog.exec_():
        color = dialog.currentColor()
        clipboard.setText("Cmyk(%d, %d, %d, %d, %d)" % (
            color.getCmyk()
        ))
        print(clipboard.text())


# create the tray icon application
tray = QSystemTrayIcon()
tray.setIcon(icon)
tray.setVisible(True)

# create the menu and add actions
menu = QMenu()
action1 = QAction("Hex")
action1.triggered.connect(get_color_hex)
menu.addAction(action1)

action2 = QAction("RGB")
action2.triggered.connect(get_color_rgb)
menu.addAction(action2)

action3 = QAction("HSV")
action3.triggered.connect(get_color_hsv)
menu.addAction(action3)

action4 = QAction("Cmyk")
action4.triggered.connect(get_color_getCmyk)
menu.addAction(action4)

action5 =QAction("Exit")
action5.triggered.connect(exit)
menu.addAction(action5)

# add the menu to the tray icon application
tray.setContextMenu(menu)

app.exec_()
