In this article we are going to learn to change the colour of toolbar. We will simply use SetBackgroundColour() function in order to do this. SetBackgroundColour() simply sets the background colour of the window. It takes a wx.Colour parameter, i.e., the colour to be used as the background colour.
Syntax: wx.ToolBar.SetBackgroundColour(self, colour) Parameters:
Parameter Input Type Description colour wx.Colour The colour to be used as the background colour Return Type: bool Returns: True if the colour was really changed, False if it was already set to this colour and nothing was done.
Code Example:
Python3
import wxclass Example(wx.Frame): global count count = 0; def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.InitUI() def InitUI(self): self.locale = wx.Locale(wx.LANGUAGE_ENGLISH) pnl = wx.Panel(self) self.toolbar = self.CreateToolBar() # Add tools to toolbar ptool = self.toolbar.AddTool(12, 'oneTool', wx.Bitmap('right.png'), wx.Bitmap('wrong.png'), shortHelp ="Simple Tool") qtool = self.toolbar.AddTool(12, 'oneTool', wx.Bitmap('wrong.png'), wx.Bitmap('wrong.png'), shortHelp ="Simple Tool") # change background colour of toolbar self.toolbar.SetBackgroundColour((255, 200, 50, 255)) self.toolbar.Realize() self.SetSize((350, 250)) self.SetTitle('Control') self.Centre()def main(): app = wx.App() ex = Example(None) ex.Show() app.MainLoop()if __name__ == '__main__': main() |
Output Window:
