In this article we are going to learn about Check function associated with the wx.MenuItem class of wxPython. As the name Check suggests Check() function checks or unchecks the menu item(ITEM_CHECK). Note that this only works when the item is already appended to a menu.
Syntax: wx.MenuItem.Check(self, check=True) Parameters :
Parameter Input Type Description check bool Set to True if checked else False.
Code Example:
Python3
import wx
class Example(wx.Frame):
def __init__( self , * args, * * kwargs):
super (Example, self ).__init__( * args, * * kwargs)
self .InitUI()
def InitUI( self ):
self .locale = wx.Locale(wx.LANGUAGE_ENGLISH)
self .menubar = wx.MenuBar()
self .fileMenu = wx.Menu()
self .item = wx.MenuItem( self .fileMenu, 1 , '&Check' , kind = wx.ITEM_CHECK)
self .fileMenu.Append( self .item)
# Check function checks the item at the first place you open the app
self .item.Check(check = True )
self .menubar.Append( self .fileMenu, '&File' )
self .SetMenuBar( self .menubar)
self .SetSize(( 350 , 250 ))
self .SetTitle( 'Icons and shortcuts' )
self .Centre()
def main():
app = wx.App()
ex = Example( None )
ex.Show()
app.MainLoop()
if __name__ = = '__main__' :
main()
