super ().__init__()
# setting title
self .setWindowTitle( "Python " )
# setting background color to window
# self.setStyleSheet("background-color : yellow")
# 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
bar = QProgressBar( self )
# setting geometry to progress bar
bar.setGeometry( 200 , 100 , 200 , 30 )
