In PyQt5 when we create a status bar the size of status bar changes with the size of window. In this article we will see how to fix the size of status bar such that if window size changes it will not change the size of status bar. In order to do this we will use setFixedSize() method.
Syntax : self.statusBar().setFixedSize(width, height) Argument : It takes two integer as argument i.e width and height. Action performed : It set the fixed size to the status bar.
Code :
Python3
from PyQt5.QtCore import *from PyQt5.QtGui import *from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *import sysclass 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 fixed size to the status bar self.statusBar().setFixedSize(400, 40) # creating a label widget self.label_1 = QLabel("Fixed size", 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 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
