In this article we will see how we can set menu to the QCommandLinkButton. Menu is basically an extra feature of command link button which allows its to have a drop down menu from which user can click on the menu items. Below is how the command link button looks like

In order to do this we use setMenu method with the command link button object

Syntax : button.setMenu(menu)

Argument : It takes QMenu object as argument

Return : It return None

Below is the implementation




# 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, 500, 400)
  
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
  
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
  
  
    # method for components
    def UiComponents(self):
  
  
        # creating a command link button
        cl_button = QCommandLinkButton("Press", self)
  
        # setting geometry
        cl_button.setGeometry(200, 100, 150, 60)
  
        # QActions
        a = QAction("Next Geeks", self)
        b = QAction("Previous Geeks", self)
  
        # QMenu
        menu = QMenu()
  
        # adding actions to menu
        menu.addAction(a)
        menu.addAction(b)
  
        # setting menu to the button
        cl_button.setMenu(menu)
  
  
  
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
