In this article we are going to learn about GetToolLongHelp() function present in wx.ToolBar class of wxPython. GetToolLongHelp() function returns the long help for the given tool. It takes only one argument that is toolid( ID of the tool in question, as passed to AddTool ).
Syntax:
wx.GetToolLongHelp(self, toolid)Parameters :
Parameter Input Type Description toolid int An integer by which the tool may be identified in subsequent operations. Return Type:
string
Code Example 1:Â
Python3
import wxÂ
Â
class Example(wx.Frame):    global count    count = 0;Â
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):        super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)Â
        self.InitUI()Â
    def InitUI(self):        self.locale = wx.Locale(wx.LANGUAGE_ENGLISH)        pnl = wx.Panel(self)        self.toolbar = self.CreateToolBar()        self.toolbar.SetMargins(10, 10)        # Add Tools Using AddLabelTool function        rtool = self.toolbar.AddLabelTool(id = 13, label = "Tool one", bitmap = wx.Bitmap('wrong.png'), shortHelp ="short help 1", longHelp = "Long help associated with simple tool 1")        stool = self.toolbar.AddLabelTool(id = 14, label = "Tool two", bitmap = wx.Bitmap('wrong.png'), shortHelp ="short help 2", longHelp = "Long help associated with simple tool 2")Â
        self.toolbar.Realize()        self.SetSize((350, 250))        self.SetTitle('Control')        self.Centre()Â
        bl = self.toolbar.GetToolLongHelp(13)Â
        # print tool longHelp string        print(bl)Â
Â
def main():Â Â Â Â app = wx.App()Â Â Â Â ex = Example(None)Â Â Â Â ex.Show()Â Â Â Â app.MainLoop()Â
Â
if __name__ == '__main__':Â Â Â Â main() |
Output:
Long help associated with simple tool 1
