Title: "Designing a Customizable UI with PyQt6" In this tutorial, we'll explore how to create a customizable UI using PyQt6. We'll use a simple example of a color picker dialog that allows users to select their preferred color and apply it to the application's background. First, let's start by importing the necessary modules and setting up our main window: ```python import sys from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout, QPushButton, QColorDialog from PyQt6.QtGui import QColor class MainWindow(QWidget): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.setWindowTitle("Customizable UI") self.setGeometry(100, 100, 300, 200) layout = QVBoxLayout() self.setLayout(layout) button = QPushButton("Change Color") button.clicked.connect(self.change_color) layout.addWidget(button) def change_color(self): color = QColorDialog.getColor() if color.isValid(): self.setStyleSheet(f"background-color: {color.name()}") if __name__ == "__main__": app = QApplication(sys.argv) window = MainWindow() window.show() sys.exit(app.exec()) ``` This code creates a simple window with a button labeled "Change Color". When the button is clicked, a color dialog appears, allowing the user to choose a color. Once a color is selected, the background of the window changes to the chosen color. Now, let's make the UI more customizable by adding an option to change the font size of the button text. We can do this by adding a spin box and connecting its valueChanged signal to a slot that updates the font size: ```python from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QSpinBox class MainWindow(QWidget): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # ... font_size_spinbox = QSpinBox() font_size_spinbox.setMinimum(8) font_size_spinbox.setMaximum(24) font_size_spinbox.valueChanged.connect(self.update_font_size) layout.addWidget(font_size_spinbox) def update_font_size(self, font_size): self.button.setStyleSheet(f"font-size: {font_size}px") if __name__ == "__main__": # ... ``` Now, when you run the application, you'll see a spin box below the "Change Color" button. Adjusting the spin box will change the font size of the button text in real-time. This is just a simple example of how you can create a customizable UI with PyQt6. By adding more widgets and signals, you can create complex and interactive user interfaces that cater to different user preferences.
