PyQt5 QSpinBox – Making it visible using show method

In this article we will see how we can make the spin box visible with the help of show method. We can hide the spin box using hide method or setHidden method. By default spin box is visible. show method is exact opposite of hide method

In order to do so we use show method.

Syntax : spin_box.show()

Argument : It takes no argument

Action performed : Makes spin box visible

Implementation steps :

1. Create a spin box
2. Create a push button
3. Add action to the push button
4. Inside the push button make the spin box hidden with the help of hide method
5. Create another push button
6. Inside the action make the spin box visible with the help of show method

Below is the implementation

# importing libraries

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")

        # creating push button
        button = QPushButton("Hide", self)

        # setting button geometry
        button.setGeometry(100, 160, 100, 40)

        # adding action to the push button
        button.clicked.connect(self.push_method)

        # creating push button
        e_button = QPushButton("Show", self)

        # setting button geometry
        e_button.setGeometry(220, 160, 100, 40)

        # adding action to the push button
        e_button.clicked.connect(self.another_method)

    # method called by push button
    def push_method(self):
        # making spin box hide
        self.spin.hide()

    # method called by e_button
    def another_method(self):
        # making spin box visible
        self.spin.show()


# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)

# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()

# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())

Output :
