PyQt5 QColorDialog – Accepting the color

Last Updated : 24 Jun, 2020

In this article we will see how we can accept the QColorDialog widget. Accepting hides the modal dialog and sets the result code to accepted, it is same when user press ‘OK’ button.

This method calls the finished signal

In order to do this we use accept method with the QColorDialog object

Syntax : dialog.accept()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns None

Below is the implementation

# importing libraries 
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * 
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui 
from PyQt5.QtGui import * 
from PyQt5.QtCore import * 
import sys 
  
  
class Window(QMainWindow): 
  
    def __init__(self): 
        super().__init__() 
  
        # setting title 
        self.setWindowTitle("Python ") 
  
        # setting geometry 
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 500, 400) 
  
        # calling method 
        self.UiComponents() 
  
        # showing all the widgets 
        self.show() 
  
  
    # method for components 
    def UiComponents(self): 
  
        # creating a QColorDialog object 
        dialog = QColorDialog(self) 
  
        # setting current color to the dialog 
        dialog.setCurrentColor(Qt.red) 
  
        # accepting the color 
        dialog.accept() 
  
        # executing the dialog 
        # dialog.exec_() 
  
  
        # creating label 
        label = QLabel("GeeksforGeeks", self) 
  
        # setting geometry to the label 
        label.setGeometry(100, 100, 300, 80) 
  
        # making label multi line 
        label.setWordWrap(True) 
  
        # setting stylesheet of the label 
        label.setStyleSheet("QLabel"
                            "{"
                            "border : 5px solid black;"
                            "}") 
  
        # getting the selected color 
        color = dialog.selectedColor() 
  
        # setting graphic effect to the label 
        graphic = QGraphicsColorizeEffect(self) 
  
        # setting color to the graphic 
        graphic.setColor(color) 
  
        # setting graphic to the label 
        label.setGraphicsEffect(graphic) 
  
        # setting text to the label 
        label.setText("Accepted Color : " + str(color)) 
  
  
  
# create pyqt5 app 
App = QApplication(sys.argv) 
  
# create the instance of our Window 
window = Window() 
  
# start the app 
sys.exit(App.exec()) 

# Write Python3 code here

Output :

Note : In this implementation we didn’t execute the color dialog because we set the current color and accept the color programmatically will make it selected color instead of white which is default
