While designing a Gui (Graphical User Interface) application, we mostly end up making lots of windows with each having status bar. For back-end coders it become tough to distinguish between the windows status bar. To overcome this need of settings name required, for examples among hundreds of status bar we can distinguish them by setting their names like some are “status -info” status bar, some are “status warning” status bar just like this.
In order to set name of status bar we use statusBar().setAccessibleName() method and to access this name we use statusBar().accessibleName() method.
Syntax :
self.statusBar().setAccessibleName(name) statusBar().accessibleName()Argument :
statusBar().setAccessibleName()takes string as argument.
statusBar().accessibleName()takes no argument.Return :
statusBar().setAccessibleName()returns None.
statusBar().setAccessibleName()returns string.
Code :
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") # setting the geometry of window self.setGeometry(60, 60, 600, 400) # setting status bar message self.statusBar().showMessage("This is status bar") # setting border self.statusBar().setStyleSheet("border :3px solid black;") # setting name to a status bar self.statusBar().setAccessibleName("Status Bar") # creating a label widget self.label_1 = QLabel(self) # moving position self.label_1.move(100, 100) # setting up the border self.label_1.setStyleSheet("border :1px solid blue;") # getting name of status bar name = self.statusBar().accessibleName() # setting text to label self.label_1.setText("name = "+name) # resizing label 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()) |
Output :
