PyQt5 – How to create semi transparent window ?

PySide2 – How to create window?

When we design an application in PyQt5, the main window is used to appear by default the window is opaque, but we can make it transparent as well. we can do this by using setWindowOpacity() method which belongs to the QWidget class.

Syntax : setWindowOpacity(0.5)

Argument : It takes float value as argument : 0 for completely transparent and 1 for opaque.

Action performed : Makes the window transparent.

Code :

# importing the required libraries 
  
from PyQt5.QtCore import * 
from PyQt5.QtGui import * 
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * 
import sys 
  
  
class Window(QMainWindow): 
  
  
    def __init__(self): 
        super().__init__() 
  
  
        # set the title 
        self.setWindowTitle("Python") 
  
        self.setWindowOpacity(0.5) 
  
  
        # setting  the geometry of window 
        self.setGeometry(60, 60, 600, 400) 
  
        # creating a label widget 
        self.label_1 = QLabel("transparent ", self) 
        # moving position 
        self.label_1.move(100, 100) 
  
        self.label_1.adjustSize() 
  
        # show all the widgets 
        self.show() 
  
  
# create pyqt5 app 
App = QApplication(sys.argv) 
  
# create the instance of our Window 
window = Window() 
  
# start the app 
sys.exit(App.exec())
