Qt Python radiobutton: fire event

Question

I am developing a project for one client, where the design has a switch with exclusive options.

Here is a snippet of code that launches and shows two beautiful buttons:

    self.performGroupBox = QtGui.QGroupBox(self.centralwidget)
    self.performGroupBox.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50, 20, 181, 121))
    self.performGroupBox.setObjectName("performGroupBox")     

    self.consultRadioButton = QtGui.QRadioButton(self.performGroupBox)
    self.consultRadioButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(40, 30, 84, 18))
    self.consultRadioButton.setObjectName("consultRadioButton")

    self.insertRadioButton = QtGui.QRadioButton(self.performGroupBox)
    self.insertRadioButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(40, 60, 84, 18))
    self.insertRadioButton.setObjectName("insertRadioButton")

It looks simple:

perform:
    () Consult
    () Insert

The point is, how do you know which option was checked: "consultRadioButton" or "insertRadioButton"?

Here is an example of trying to get this information:

    if self.consultRadioButton.isChecked():
        self.call_Consult()
    if self.insertRadioButton.isChecked():
        self.call_Insert()

But nothing was done when choosing a beacon.

Otherwise, using a connection should be another option:

    QtCore.QObject.connect(self.consultRadioButton, QtCore.SIGNAL("currentIndexChanged(QString)"), self.call_Consult)  
    QtCore.QObject.connect(self.insertRadioButton, QtCore.SIGNAL("currentIndexChanged(QString)"), self.call_Insert) 

But that didn't work either.

What's missing here ... Any suggestion?

All comments are welcome and appreciated.

bool , .

Answer 3

Take a look at the QButtonGroup class

Answer 4

# Assuming 'self' is a QtGui object
self.consultRadioButton = QtGui.QRadioButton('Consult')
# I prefer layout managers, but that is another topic
self.consultRadioButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(40, 30, 84, 18))
self.consultRadioButton.setObjectName("consultRadioButton")

self.insertRadioButton = QtGui.QRadioButton('Insert')
self.insertRadioButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(40, 60, 84, 18))
self.insertRadioButton.setObjectName("insertRadioButton")

# Set Default
self.consultRadioButton.setChecked(True)

# Create a Group and make it exclusive
self.methodGrp.setExclusive(True)

# Add radio buttons to group
self.methodGrp.addButton(self.consultRadioButton)
self.methodGrp.addButton(self.insertRadioButton)

# Connect Event handlers
self.consultRadioButton.clicked.connect(self.callConsult)
self.insertRadioButton.clicked.connect(self.callInsert)
