Detailed Description#

An opacity effect renders the source with an opacity. This effect is useful for making the source semi-transparent, similar to a fade-in/fade-out sequence. The opacity can be modified using the setOpacity() function.

By default, the opacity is 0.7.

class PySide6.QtWidgets.QGraphicsOpacityEffect([parent=None])#
Parameters:

parent – PySide6.QtCore.QObject

Constructs a new QGraphicsOpacityEffect instance. The parent parameter is passed to QGraphicsEffect ‘s constructor.

Note

Properties can be used directly when from __feature__ import true_property is used or via accessor functions otherwise.

property PᅟySide6.QtWidgets.QGraphicsOpacityEffect.opacity: float#

This property holds the opacity of the effect..

The value should be in the range of 0.0 to 1.0, where 0.0 is fully transparent and 1.0 is fully opaque.

By default, the opacity is 0.7.

property PᅟySide6.QtWidgets.QGraphicsOpacityEffect.opacityMask: PySide6.QtGui.QBrush#

Warning

This section contains snippets that were automatically translated from C++ to Python and may contain errors.

This property holds the opacity mask of the effect..

An opacity mask allows you apply opacity to portions of an element.

For example:

...
alphaGradient = QLinearGradient(rect.topLeft(), rect.bottomLeft())
alphaGradient.setColorAt(0.0, Qt.transparent)
alphaGradient.setColorAt(0.5, Qt.black)
alphaGradient.setColorAt(1.0, Qt.transparent)
effect = QGraphicsOpacityEffect()
effect.setOpacityMask(alphaGradient)
...

There is no opacity mask by default.
