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 wxclass 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() |
