PyQt5 – Different sized padding Progress Bar

Last Updated : 22 Apr, 2020

In this article we will see how to set different padding sizes for different sides of progress bar, below is the representation of normal padded progress bar vs the different sized padding progress bar.

In order to do this we have to change the CSS style sheet of progress bar, below is the style sheet code.

QProgressBar
{
border : 1px solid black;
padding-top : 10px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right:10;
padding-bottom : 5px;
}

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, 600, 400) 
  
        # calling method 
        self.UiComponents() 
  
        # showing all the widgets 
        self.show() 
  
    # method for widgets 
    def UiComponents(self): 
        # creating progress bar 
        bar = QProgressBar(self) 
  
        # setting geometry to progress bar 
        bar.setGeometry(200, 150, 200, 30) 
  
        # set value to progress bar 
        bar.setValue(100) 
  
        # setting alignment to center 
        bar.setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter) 
  
        # setting different padding size 
        # and border to progress bar 
        bar.setStyleSheet("QProgressBar"
                          "{"
                          "border : 1px solid black;"
                          "padding-top : 10px;"
                          "padding-left: 20px;"
                          "padding-right:10;"
                          "padding-bottom : 5px;"
                          "}") 
  
  
# create pyqt5 app 
App = QApplication(sys.argv) 
  
# create the instance of our Window 
window = Window() 
  
# start the app 
sys.exit(App.exec())
