Synopsis

Functions

Signals

Detailed Description

QDoubleValidator provides an upper bound, a lower bound, and a limit on the number of digits after the decimal point. It does not provide a fixup() function.

You can set the acceptable range in one call with setRange() , or with setBottom() and setTop() . Set the number of decimal places with setDecimals() . The validate() function returns the validation state.

QDoubleValidator uses its locale() to interpret the number. For example, in the German locale, “1,234” will be accepted as the fractional number 1.234. In Arabic locales, QDoubleValidator will accept Arabic digits.

Note

The NumberOptions set on the locale() also affect the way the number is interpreted. For example, since RejectGroupSeparator is not set by default, the validator will accept group separators. It is thus recommended to use toDouble() to obtain the numeric value.

class PySide6.QtGui.QDoubleValidator([parent=None])

PySide6.QtGui.QDoubleValidator(bottom, top, decimals[, parent=None])

Parameters

Constructs a validator object with a parent object that accepts any double.

Constructs a validator object with a parent object. This validator will accept doubles from bottom to top inclusive, with up to decimals digits after the decimal point.

PySide6.QtGui.QDoubleValidator.Notation

This enum defines the allowed notations for entering a double.

Constant

Description

QDoubleValidator.StandardNotation

The string is written as a standard number (i.e. 0.015).

QDoubleValidator.ScientificNotation

The string is written in scientific form. It may have an exponent part(i.e. 1.5E-2).
