What do you mean by not selectable?

Maybe you need some other widget (i saw in another topic, that you want a not editable QLineEdit) if you tell us what you are trying to achieve, maybe we can give better advices.

If you mean text selection: reimp mouse press/move event and ignore it.

yeah, i wanted to mean, disabling to select the text inside with the mouse. i should reimplement press/move events.
thanks everybody

I know that the thread is old but it still appears in Google.

So, I used


self.lineEdit.selectionChanged.connect(lambda: self.lineEdit.setSelection(0, 0))

You can use a QLabel if you don't want people to edit your text. A line edit is used for taking input.
If you want to it to be editable only at certain times, you can just update the label .
