More Types of Dialog Boxes
Learn more about different dialog boxes - QInputDialog, QFontDialog and QColorDialog.
Several distinct dialog boxes inherent to PyQt are used in this session, including QInputDialog
, QFileDialog
, QFontDialog
, QColorDialog
, and QMessageBox
.
Let's learn about some novel dialog box varieties and discover how to incorporate them into our code.
