In this article we will see how we can get the layout to the QDockWidget. QDockWidget provides the concept of dock widgets, also know as tool palettes or utility windows. Dock windows are secondary windows placed in the dock widget area around the central widget in a QMainWindow(original window). Layout specifies how the internal component will be arranged we can set, it can be set with the help of setLayout method.
In order to do this we will use
layoutmethod with the dock widget object.Syntax : dock.layout()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns QLayout object
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 dock widget dock = QDockWidget(self) # setting title to the doc widget dock.setWindowTitle("GfG Dock") # push button push = QPushButton("Press", self) # setting widget to the dock dock.setWidget(push) # creating a label label = QLabel("GeeksforGeeks", self) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry(100, 200, 300, 80) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap(True) # setting geometry tot he dock widget dock.setGeometry(100, 0, 200, 30) # getting layout of dock value = dock.layout() # setting text to the label label.setText("Layout : " + str(value)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
