In this article we are going to learn about ToggleTool() function associated with the wx.ToolBar class of wxPython. ToggleTool() function is used to toggle a tool on or off. This does not cause any event to get emitted. It takes two parameters that are toolId and toggle.
Syntax:
wx.ToolBar.ToggleTool(self, toolId, toggle)
Parameters:
| Parameter | Input Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| toolId | int | ID of the tool in question, as passed to AddTool . |
| toggle | bool | If True, toggles the tool on, otherwise toggles it off. |
Code Example 1:
Python3
import wx class Example(wx.Frame): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.InitUI() def InitUI(self): self.locale = wx.Locale(wx.LANGUAGE_ENGLISH) self.toolbar = self.CreateToolBar() td = self.toolbar.AddTool(1, 'right', wx.Bitmap('right.png'), kind = wx.ITEM_CHECK) te = self.toolbar.AddTool(2, 'wrong', wx.Bitmap('wrong.png')) self.toolbar.Realize() self.Bind(wx.EVT_TOOL, self.OnOne, td) self.SetSize((350, 250)) self.SetTitle('Undo redo') self.Centre() def OnOne(self, e): # Toggle tool using ToggleTool() function self.toolbar.ToggleTool(toolId = 1, toggle = True) # Realize() called to finalize new added tools self.toolbar.Realize() def OnQuit(self, e): self.Close() def main(): app = wx.App() ex = Example(None) ex.Show() app.MainLoop() if __name__ == '__main__': main() |
