How To Create Slider in wxPython

In this wxPython article i want to show you How To Create Slider in wxPython.

So a slider is a control with a handle which can be pulled back and forth to change the value.

On Windows, the track bar control is used.Slider generates the same events as wx.ScrollBar,

but in practice the most convenient way to process wx.Slider updates is by handling the slider-specific wxEVT_SLIDER event which carries wx.CommandEvent containing just the latest slider position.

 

 

 

 

 

So this is the complete code for How To Create Slider in wxPython

 

 

 

 

At the first we have our Frame class that inherits from wx.Frame and it is our top level window that we create our MyPanel object in this class.

 

 

 

 

After that we create our MyPanel class, this class is a container class for our widgets like buttons, menus, checkbutton and etc. you can see that we have created our Slider in this class.

 

 

 

 

This is for creation of our vertical box sizer

 

 

 

 

So in here we have created our slider and we have added our slider to the vertical box sizer.

 

 

 

 

And in here we want to bind our method to Slider

 

 

 

 

This is a text that we need for our example

 

 

 

 

So this is the event method that we have bonded in the above to our slider.

this method for text, i want when the user change the slider i want the text became bigger

 

 

 

 

 

So the last class is MyApp class that inherits from wx.App. the OnInit() method is where you will most often create frame subclass objects.

and start our main loop.That’s it. Once the application’s main event loop processing takes over, control
passes to wxPython. Unlike procedural programs, a wxPython GUI program pri-
marily responds to the events taking place around it, mostly determined by a
human user clicking with a mouse and typing at the keyboard. When all the
frames in an application have been closed, the app.MainLoop() method will
return and the program will exit.

 

 

 

 

 

Run the complete code and this will be the result
