How to create collapsible box in PyQt

Tags:

python

pyqt

pyqt4

I am using PyQt4, and I am trying to create a collapsible box where it will contains a couple of child widgets where the child widgets are already created and layout using a QVboxLayout

How do I go about creating it? Currently I am unable to find any commands eg. QCollapseBox etc.

If it is not expanded:

+ Collapsible Box Header

If expanded:

- Collapsible Box Header
|- Widget01
|- Widget02

Where there is a + or - sign, or an arrow sign that can helps determine if it has been expanded or not

Using as base the logic that is implemented in the solution of @xsquared modifying certain parts we obtain the following:

PyQt4 version

from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui


class CollapsibleBox(QtGui.QWidget):
    def __init__(self, title="", parent=None):
        super(CollapsibleBox, self).__init__(parent)

        self.toggle_button = QtGui.QToolButton(
            text=title, checkable=True, checked=False
        )
        self.toggle_button.setStyleSheet("QToolButton { border: none; }")
        self.toggle_button.setToolButtonStyle(
            QtCore.Qt.ToolButtonTextBesideIcon
        )
        self.toggle_button.setArrowType(QtCore.Qt.RightArrow)
        self.toggle_button.pressed.connect(self.on_pressed)

        self.toggle_animation = QtCore.QParallelAnimationGroup(self)

        self.content_area = QtGui.QScrollArea(maximumHeight=0, minimumHeight=0)
        self.content_area.setSizePolicy(
            QtGui.QSizePolicy.Expanding, QtGui.QSizePolicy.Fixed
        )
        self.content_area.setFrameShape(QtGui.QFrame.NoFrame)

        lay = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(self)
        lay.setSpacing(0)
        lay.setContentsMargins(0, 0, 0, 0)
        lay.addWidget(self.toggle_button)
        lay.addWidget(self.content_area)

        self.toggle_animation.addAnimation(
            QtCore.QPropertyAnimation(self, b"minimumHeight")
        )
        self.toggle_animation.addAnimation(
            QtCore.QPropertyAnimation(self, b"maximumHeight")
        )
        self.toggle_animation.addAnimation(
            QtCore.QPropertyAnimation(self.content_area, b"maximumHeight")
        )

    @QtCore.pyqtSlot()
    def on_pressed(self):
        checked = self.toggle_button.isChecked()
        self.toggle_button.setArrowType(
            QtCore.Qt.DownArrow if not checked else QtCore.Qt.RightArrow
        )
        self.toggle_animation.setDirection(
            QtCore.QAbstractAnimation.Forward
            if not checked
            else QtCore.QAbstractAnimation.Backward
        )
        self.toggle_animation.start()

    def setContentLayout(self, layout):
        lay = self.content_area.layout()
        del lay
        self.content_area.setLayout(layout)
        collapsed_height = (
            self.sizeHint().height() - self.content_area.maximumHeight()
        )
        content_height = layout.sizeHint().height()
        for i in range(self.toggle_animation.animationCount()):
            animation = self.toggle_animation.animationAt(i)
            animation.setDuration(500)
            animation.setStartValue(collapsed_height)
            animation.setEndValue(collapsed_height + content_height)

        content_animation = self.toggle_animation.animationAt(
            self.toggle_animation.animationCount() - 1
        )
        content_animation.setDuration(500)
        content_animation.setStartValue(0)
        content_animation.setEndValue(content_height)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    import sys
    import random

    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)

    w = QtGui.QMainWindow()
    w.setCentralWidget(QtGui.QWidget())
    dock = QtGui.QDockWidget("Collapsible Demo")
    w.addDockWidget(QtCore.Qt.LeftDockWidgetArea, dock)
    scroll = QtGui.QScrollArea()
    dock.setWidget(scroll)
    content = QtGui.QWidget()
    scroll.setWidget(content)
    scroll.setWidgetResizable(True)

    vlay = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(content)

    for i in range(10):
        box = CollapsibleBox("Collapsible Box Header-{}".format(i))
        vlay.addWidget(box)
        lay = QtGui.QVBoxLayout()
        for j in range(8):
            label = QtGui.QLabel("{}".format(j))
            color = QtGui.QColor(*[random.randint(0, 255) for _ in range(3)])
            label.setStyleSheet(
                "background-color: {}; color : white;".format(color.name())
            )
            label.setAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
            lay.addWidget(label)

        box.setContentLayout(lay)
    vlay.addStretch()
    w.resize(640, 480)
    w.show()

    sys.exit(app.exec_())
