The main window in PyQt5 is like graph it has x-axis and y-axis, all the widgets are positioned according to their x, y co-ordinates. When we create label is formed at the top left corner, the op left co-ordinates are (0, 0), we can move the label using move()
method.
In this article, we will see how to get the co-ordinates of label. In order to do so we will use x()
method for x co-ordinate and y()
method for y co-ordinate.
Syntax :
x_position = label.x() y_position =label.y()Argument : Both method takes no argument.
Return : Both returns integer.
Code :
# 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 the geometry of window self .setGeometry( 60 , 60 , 600 , 400 ) # 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 :3px solid blue;" ) # getting x and y co-ordinates x = str ( self .label_1.x()) y = str ( self .label_1.y()) # setting label text self .label_1.setText(x + ", " + y) # creating a label widget self .label_2 = QLabel( self ) # moving position self .label_2.move( 160 , 170 ) # setting up the border self .label_2.setStyleSheet( "border :3px solid yellow;" ) # getting x and y co-ordinates x = str ( self .label_2.x()) y = str ( self .label_2.y()) # setting label text self .label_2.setText(x + ", " + y) # 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 ()) |
