Parameters :

Parameter Input Type Description
style long The toolbar style.
id int The menu item identifier.
name string The toolbar window name.

Returns : A pointer to the toolbar if it was created successfully, None otherwise.

Code Example :




import wx
  
  
class Example(wx.Frame):
  
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
  
        self.InitUI()
  
    def InitUI(self):
  
        # create toolbar using CreateToolBar function
        toolbar = self.CreateToolBar()
        qtool = toolbar.AddTool(wx.ID_ANY, 'Welcome', wx.Bitmap('/Desktop/wxPython/images.png'))
        toolbar.Realize()
  
        self.SetSize((600, 400))
        self.SetTitle('Simple toolbar')
        self.Centre()
  
    def OnQuit(self, e):
        self.Close()
  
  
def main():
  
    app = wx.App()
    ex = Example(None)
    ex.Show()
    app.MainLoop()
  
  
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
