We can set the formatting and show text using setFormat method in Progress Bar, format method is used to get the formatting of the progress bar. Note : By default formatting of progress bar is ‘%p%’ i.e used to print percentage, so if no specific formatting is set format method will return ‘%p%’.

Syntax : bar.format() Argument : It takes no argument. Return : It return string.

Below is the implementation of this method. 

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, 600, 400)
 
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
 
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
 
    # method for widgets
    def UiComponents(self):
        # creating progress bar
        bar1 = QProgressBar(self)
 
        # setting geometry to progress bar
        bar1.setGeometry(200, 100, 200, 30)
 
        # setting the value
        bar1.setValue(70)
 
        # getting format of bar1
        format1 = bar1.format()
 
        # printing the format1
        print("format of bar 1 : " + format1)
 
        bar2 = QProgressBar(self)
 
        # setting geometry to progress bar
        bar2.setGeometry(200, 200, 200, 30)
 
        # setting the value
        bar2.setValue(50)
 
        # setting text using format
        bar2.setFormat("Geeks")
 
        # getting format of bar2
        format2 = bar2.format()
 
        # printing the format2
        print("format of bar 2 : " + format2)
 
 
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
 
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
 
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())


Output :

format of bar 1 : %p%
format of bar 2 : Geeks
