[GIS] Find out if checkbox checked – pyqgis

pyqgispyqt

I'm new to pyqgis and I'm not sure how can I find out if checkbox is checked and according to the result do different things in another method?

I know how to do it in theory, but if someone can show me your code I will be thankfull.

You can simply write something like:

if self.dlg.myCheckBox.isChecked():
   doSomething()
else:
   doSomethingElse()

Note that if you want something more dynamic (ie perform an action everytime the checkbox is checked/unchecked), you will have to use PyQt signals.

You are just missing the connect for the clicked signal:

 self.tool_clickPoint.canvasClicked.connect(self.clicked)


 def clicked(self, point, button):
    ....

You can create a new dialog as a class, even in your main .py file.

class NewDialog(QtGui.QWidget):
  def __init__(self, parent):
    super(NewDialog, self).__init__(parent)

Than in your main class you can put function like that:

...
def open_new_dialog(self):
    self.nd = NewDialog(self)
    self.nd.show()
...

This function creates a new dialog and display it.

Now just create a connection in your main class init:

class Plugin:
    """QGIS Plugin Implementation."""
    def __init__(self, iface):
    ...
    self.dlg.button.connect(self.open_new_dialog)

Of course you can do it on a different way. Ex. you can create self.nd = NewDialog(self) in main class in init and only self.nd.show() it in this function. And remember about passing objects like parent (it is your main dialog window) and iface if you want to use them with this new window.
