When we create progress bar in PyQt5 its orientation is by default horizontal, but we can change it with the help of setOrientation
method. In order to get the information about the orientation of progress bar i.e it is horizontal or vertical orientation
method is used.
Syntax : bar.orientation()
Argument : It takes no argument.
Return : It will return Orientation object although when we print it, it will print 1 for horizontal orientation and 2 for vertical orientation.
Below is the implementation.
# importing libraries from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui from PyQt5.QtGui import * from PyQt5.QtCore import * import sys class Window(QMainWindow): def __init__( self ): super ().__init__() # setting title self .setWindowTitle( "Python " ) # setting geometry self .setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 600 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for widgets def UiComponents( self ): # creating progress bar bar = QProgressBar( self ) # setting geometry to progress bar bar.setGeometry( 250 , 90 , 30 , 200 ) # set value to progress bar bar.setValue( 40 ) # setting alignment to center bar.setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter) # setting orientation to vertical bar.setOrientation(QtCore.Qt.Vertical) # getting orientation orientation = bar.orientation() # printing its type print ( type (orientation)) # printing the orientation print (orientation) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
Output :
class 'PyQt5.QtCore.Qt.Orientation' 2
