Examples

import qtawesome as qta
  • Use Font Awesome and Elusive Icons.

# Get icons by name.
fa_icon = qta.icon('fa.flag')
fa_button = QtGui.QPushButton(fa_icon, 'Font Awesome!')

asl_icon = qta.icon('ei.asl')
elusive_button = QtGui.QPushButton(asl_icon, 'Elusive Icons!')
  • Apply some styling

styling_icon = qta.icon('fa.music',
                        active='fa.legal',
                        color='blue',
                        color_active='orange')
music_button = QtGui.QPushButton(styling_icon, 'Styling')
  • Stack multiple icons

# Stack icons
camera_ban = qta.icon('fa.camera', 'fa.ban',
                      options=[{'scale_factor': 0.5,
                                'active': 'fa.legal'},
                               {'color': 'red'}])
stack_button = QtGui.QPushButton(camera_ban, 'Stack')
stack_button.setIconSize(QtCore.QSize(32, 32))
  • Animations

# Spin icons
spin_button = QtGui.QPushButton(' Spinning icon')
spin_icon = qta.icon('fa.spinner', color='red',
                     animation=qta.Spin(spin_button))
spin_button.setIcon(spin_icon)

Other features

  • While QtAwesome embeds Font Awesome and Elusive Icons, it can also be used with other iconic fonts. A load_font function is available. A ttf font and a json character map for icon names must be provided.
