In PyQt5 when we create a status bar the size of status bar changes with the size of window. In this article we will see how to fix the size of status bar such that if window size changes it will not change the size of status bar. In order to do this we will use setFixedSize() method.
Syntax : self.statusBar().setFixedSize(width, height) Argument : It takes two integer as argument i.e width and height. Action performed : It set the fixed size to the status bar.
Code :
Python3
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
import sys
class Window(QMainWindow):
def __init__( self ):
super ().__init__()
# set the title
self .setWindowTitle("Python")
# setting the geometry of window
self .setGeometry( 60 , 60 , 600 , 400 )
# setting status bar message
self .statusBar().showMessage("This is status bar")
# setting border
self .statusBar().setStyleSheet("border : 3px solid black;")
# setting fixed size to the status bar
self .statusBar().setFixedSize( 400 , 40 )
# creating a label widget
self .label_1 = QLabel("Fixed size", self )
# moving position
self .label_1.move( 100 , 100 )
# setting up the border
self .label_1.setStyleSheet("border : 1px solid blue;")
# resizing label
self .label_1.adjustSize()
# show all the widgets
self .show()
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
