PyQt5 – Make Status Bar invisible

In this article, we will see how to make status bar visible to the user. By default, when we create a status bar it is clearly visible to the user, but with the help of setVisible to False we can make the status bar invisible.

Syntax : self.statusBar().setVisible(False)

Argument : It take bool as argument.

Action performed : It make the visibility status of status bar to false

Code :




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)
  
        # setting status bar message
        self.statusBar().showMessage("This is status bar")
  
        # setting  border
        self.statusBar().setStyleSheet("border :3px solid black;")
  
        # setting tool tip for status bar
        self.statusBar().setToolTip("Hello ! from status bar")
  
        # setting visibility status to False
        self.statusBar().setVisible(False)
  
        # creating a label widget
        self.label_1 = QLabel("status bar", self)
  
        # moving position
        self.label_1.move(100, 100)
  
        # setting up the border
        self.label_1.setStyleSheet("border :1px solid blue;")
  
        # resizing label
        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())
