Hi I have designed a basic GUI in QT and created a .py file from it.
When the window starts up I want to add another menu item. I have tried a few pieces of code I found on google but nothing seems to work. The code will need to go in the method addAdminMenu()
from PyQt4 import QtGui
import sys
from supplypy.core.windows.main_window import Ui_MainWindow
class SRM(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
self.app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
self.MainWindow = QtGui.QMainWindow()
self.ui = Ui_MainWindow()
self.ui.setupUi(self.MainWindow)
self.MainWindow.show()
sys.exit(self.app.exec_())
def addAdminMenu(self):
pass
#####Add code here to create a Admin menu####
if __name__ == '__main__':
srm = SRM()
It should be as simple as accessing the menuBar()
of the QMainWindow
and adding an item, for example: (I removed the Ui_MainWindow lines just because I don't know what it's for -- a Windows requirement?)
from PyQt4 import QtGui
import sys
class SRM(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
self.app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
self.MainWindow = QtGui.QMainWindow()
self.menubar = self.MainWindow.menuBar()
self.MainWindow.show()
self.addAdminMenu()
sys.exit(self.app.exec_())
def addAdminMenu(self):
self.menubar.addMenu('&Admin');
if __name__ == '__main__':
srm = SRM()
