In this article we are going to learn about SetItemLabel() function associated with wx.MenuItem class of wxPython. SetItemLabel() function is used to set the label associated with the menu item in menu.
Note that if the ID of this menu item corresponds to a stock ID, then it is not necessary to specify a label: wxWidgets will automatically use the stock item label associated with that ID. See the constructor for more info.
Syntax:
wx.MenuItem.SetItemLabel(self, label)Parameters:
Parameter Input Type Description label string new label for menuitem.
Code Example:
import wx class Example(wx.Frame): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.InitUI() def InitUI(self): self.locale = wx.Locale(wx.LANGUAGE_ENGLISH) self.menubar = wx.MenuBar() self.fileMenu = wx.Menu() self.st = wx.StaticText(self, label ="", pos =(20, 20), style = wx.ALIGN_LEFT) self.item = wx.MenuItem(self.fileMenu, 1, '&Radio', kind = wx.ITEM_CHECK) # initial label of item is Radio # set new label of menu item self.item.SetItemLabel(label ="New Label") self.fileMenu.Append(self.item) self.menubar.Append(self.fileMenu, '&File') self.SetMenuBar(self.menubar) self.SetSize((350, 250)) self.SetTitle('Icons and shortcuts') self.Centre() def main(): app = wx.App() ex = Example(None) ex.Show() app.MainLoop() if __name__ == '__main__': main() |
