In this article we will see how we can set a vertical title bar to 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). By default title bar is horizontal although we can make it vertical any time.
In order to do this we will use setFeatures method with the dock widget object.
Syntax : dock.setFeatures(QDockWidget.DockWidgetVerticalTitleBar)
Argument : It takes Vertical feature object as argument
Return : It returns 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 dock widget
dock = QDockWidget( self )
# setting title to the dock widget
dock.setWindowTitle("GfG Title")
# creating a QWidget object
widget = QWidget( self )
# creating a vertical box layout
layout = QVBoxLayout( self )
# push button 1
push1 = QPushButton("A", self )
# push button 2
push2 = QPushButton("B", self )
# adding these buttons to the layout
layout.addWidget(push1)
layout.addWidget(push2)
# setting the layout to the widget
widget.setLayout(layout)
# adding widget to the layout
dock.setWidget(widget)
# creating a label
label = QLabel("GeesforGeeks", 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 )
# setting vertical title bar
dock.setFeatures(QDockWidget.DockWidgetVerticalTitleBar)
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
