In this article we will see how we can get title bar widget of the QDockWidget. QDockWidget provides the concept of dock widgets, also known 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). Title bar widget is the widget that consist of the title and the options available for it, although we can change this any time with the help of setTitleBarWidget method.
 

In order to do this we will use titleBarWidget method with the dock widget object.
Syntax : dock.titleBarWidget()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns QWidget object 
 

Below is the implementation 
 

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, 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 dock widget
        dock.setWindowTitle("                   GfG ")
 
 
        # 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 to the dock widget
        dock.setGeometry(100, 0, 200, 30)
 
        # creating a label
        widget = QLabel("Geeks", self)
 
        # setting title bar widget to the dock
        dock.setTitleBarWidget(widget)
 
        # getting title bar widget
        value = dock.titleBarWidget()
 
        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Title Bar widget : " + str(value))
 
 
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
 
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
 
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())


Output :
