Example: pyqt5 open window menubar
# Taken from https://www.learnpyqt.com/tutorials/creating-multiple-windows/
# and edited some few things
import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QWidget, QMenuBar, QAction
# New window to be created
class AnotherWindow(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(AnotherWindow, self).__init__()
"""
Works the same as a normal window (it's a window) so you
can add things like `setWindowTitle` and such.
"""
# Main window
class MainWindow(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self):

# Create menu bar

# Add action to menu bar
