In this article we will see how we can get the window title of the QDockWidget. QDockWidget provides the concept of dock widgets, also know as tool palettes or utility windows. Dock windows are secondary windows placed in the dock widget area around the central widget in a QMainWindow(original window). This property holds the dock widget title (caption).
By default, this property contains an empty string. This caption appears on the top of the dock widget window, it can be set with the help of setWindowTitle
method.
In order to do this we will use
windowTitle
method with the dock widget object.Syntax : dock.windowTitle()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns string
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing libraries from PyQt5.QtWidgets import * from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui from PyQt5.QtGui import * from PyQt5.QtCore import * import sys class Window(QMainWindow): def __init__( self ): super ().__init__() # setting title self .setWindowTitle( "Python " ) # setting geometry self .setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 500 , 400 ) # calling method self .UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self .show() # method for components def UiComponents( self ): # creating dock widget dock = QDockWidget( self ) # setting title to the dock widget dock.setWindowTitle( "GfG Dock" ) # push button push = QPushButton( "Press" , self ) # setting floating property dock.setFloating( False ) # setting widget to the dock dock.setWidget(push) # creating a label label = QLabel( "neveropen" , self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 100 , 200 , 300 , 80 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # setting geometry tot he dock widget dock.setGeometry( 100 , 0 , 200 , 30 ) # get window title of dock widget value = dock.windowTitle() # setting text to the label label.setText( "Title : " + str (value)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
