In this article we will see how we can get position of slider in QScrollBar. QScrollBar is a control that enables the user to access parts of a document that is larger than the widget used to display it. Slider is the scroll-able object inside the bar. We can change its position with the help of mouse and keyboard. Also we can change its position programmatically with the help of setSliderPosition method.
In order to do this we will use sliderPosition method with the scroll bar object.
Syntax : scroll.sliderPosition()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns integer
Example: 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 ):
scroll = QScrollBar( self )
# setting geometry of the scroll bar
scroll.setGeometry( 100 , 50 , 30 , 200 )
# making its background color to green
scroll.setStyleSheet( "background : lightgrey;" )
# setting slider position
scroll.setSliderPosition( 50 )
# creating a label
label = QLabel( "GeeksforGeeks" , self )
# setting geometry to the label
label.setGeometry( 200 , 100 , 300 , 80 )
# making label multi line
label.setWordWrap( True )
# getting current position of the slider
value = scroll.sliderPosition()
# setting text to the label
label.setText( "Slider Position : " + str (value))
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
