Event for custom toggle state change? about pyqt5-custom-widgets HOT 3 CLOSED

If you meant ToggleSwitch it has a toggled signal, you can use it like this:

from pyqt5Custom import ToggleSwitch

...

tg = ToggleSwitch()

# this slot is connected to 'toggled' signal
def slot():
    if tg.isToggled():
        print("the toggle switch is on!")
        
    else:
        print("the toggle switch is off!")
        
tg.toggled.connect(slot)

That works thank you. However isn't it a bit odd that the slot function can only be defined before it can actually be used? Otherwise the mechanism will crash. One other thing would be, how would you use this with classes? Giving that you have a initUI method of a class which handles all graphical elements on the window how could one use the slot mechanism outside of the initUI method sfn the custom widgets inside of that initUI method? From my trials I could not get it to work. :)
