In this article, we will see how we can hide the Label in the PyQt5 application. A label is a graphical control element which displays text on a form. It is usually a static control; having no interactivity. A label is generally used to identify a nearby text box or another widget. In order to hide the label we use setHidden() method, this method allows user to set if the widget should be visible or hidden, it belongs to the QWidget class.
Syntax : label.setHidden(True) Argument : It takes bool as an argument.
Code :
Python3
# importing the required librariesfrom PyQt5.QtWidgets import *from PyQt5 import QtCorefrom PyQt5.QtGui import *import sysclass Window(QMainWindow): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # set the title self.setWindowTitle("Label") # setting the geometry of window self.setGeometry(0, 0, 400, 300) # creating a label widget self.label_1 = QLabel("Normal Label", self) # moving position self.label_1.move(100, 100) # setting up border self.label_1.setStyleSheet("border: 1px solid black;") # creating a label widget self.label_2 = QLabel("Hidden Label", self) # moving position self.label_2.move(100, 150) # setting up border self.label_2.setStyleSheet("border: 1px solid black;") # hiding the label self.label_2.setHidden(True) # show all the widgets self.show()# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output : 
As we can see the label 2 is hidden in the output window.
