In this article we will see how we can set title bar widget to the QDockWidget. QDockWidget provides the concept of dock widgets, also known as tool palettes or utility windows. Dock windows are secondary windows placed in the dock widget area around the central widget in a QMainWindow(original window). Title bar widget is the widget that consist of the title and the options available for it, although we can change this any time.
In order to do this we will use setTitleBarWidget method with the dock widget object.
Syntax : dock.setTitleBarWidget(widget)
Argument : It takes QWidget object as argument
Return : It returns None
Below is the implementation
Python3
# 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 , 500 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for components def UiComponents( self ): # creating dock widget dock = QDockWidget( self ) # setting title to the dock widget dock.setWindowTitle(" GfG ") # push button push = QPushButton("Press", self ) # setting widget to the dock dock.setWidget(push) # creating a label label = QLabel("GeesforGeeks", self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 100 , 200 , 300 , 80 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # setting geometry tot he dock widget dock.setGeometry( 100 , 0 , 200 , 30 ) # creating a label widget = QLabel("Geeks", self ) # setting title bar widget to the dock dock.setTitleBarWidget(widget) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
