PyQt5 - How to Access ComboBox Description | accessibleDescription method

In PyQt5, the QComboBox widget allows users to select an item from a dropdown list. The QComboBox widget, like other QWidget-derived classes, has properties such as accessibleName and accessibleDescription which can be useful in improving the accessibility of the application.

accessibleDescription provides a brief description of the widget's purpose or function in your user interface. This description can be accessed or modified using the accessibleDescription() and setAccessibleDescription() methods respectively.

Here's a simple example demonstrating how to set and then access the accessibleDescription of a QComboBox:

import sys from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout, QLabel, QComboBox class AppDemo(QWidget): def __init__(self): super().__init__() layout = QVBoxLayout(self) self.comboBox = QComboBox(self) self.comboBox.addItems(['Option 1', 'Option 2', 'Option 3']) # Setting accessible description for the combobox self.comboBox.setAccessibleDescription('This is a sample combobox.') layout.addWidget(self.comboBox) # Creating a label to display the accessed accessibleDescription self.label = QLabel(self) layout.addWidget(self.label) # Access and display the combobox's accessibleDescription description = self.comboBox.accessibleDescription() self.label.setText(f"ComboBox's Accessible Description: {description}") app = QApplication(sys.argv) demo = AppDemo() demo.show() sys.exit(app.exec_())

When you run the above code, you'll see a window containing a QComboBox and a QLabel. The QLabel displays the accessible description of the QComboBox which was set earlier in the code.
