PyQt5 allows us to set the icon of window using setWindowIcon() method, on the other hand setWindowIconText() method is also present in it which allows us to set the text the icon.
Although, it is not recommended to use as it has not any use, there was use in previous i.e old versions. It is now used to make the old source codes working. It was used by the window manager now it is not used anymore.
Syntax : self.setWindowIconText(“text”)
Argument : It takes string as argument.
Return : If no icon is set it will return NULL string else return the text set before.
Code :
Python3
# importing the required libraries 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 window icon self .setWindowIcon(QIcon( "logo.png" )) # setting icon text self .setWindowIconText( "logo" ) # setting the geometry of window self .setGeometry( 60 , 60 , 600 , 400 ) # creating a label widget self .label_1 = QLabel( "icon text " , self ) # moving position self .label_1.move( 100 , 100 ) 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 :
Note: This method is not recommended to use in codes, as it is of no use for modern systems.
