PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Accessing Children Region

In this article we will see how we get the children region of the QCalendarWidget. Calendar is not alone a single widget it is a mixture of lots of smaller widget which we refer as calendar’s child. There are many child such as table view, item delegate etc, we use children method to get all the children of it. Children region is the region(area occupied) of all the children except hidden children i.e combined region of all the widgets.

In order to do this we will use childrenRegion method with the QCalendarWidget object.

Syntax : calendar.childrenRegion()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It return QRegion object

Below is the implementation

Python3

# importing libraries
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
import sys


class Window(QMainWindow):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

        # setting title
        self.setWindowTitle("Python ")

        # setting geometry
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 650, 400)

        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()

        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()

    # method for components
    def UiComponents(self):

        # creating a QCalendarWidget object
        self.calendar = QCalendarWidget(self)

        # setting geometry to the calendar
        self.calendar.setGeometry(50, 10, 400, 250)

        # creating a label
        label = QLabel(self)

        # setting geometry
        label.setGeometry(50, 280, 420, 120)

        # making it multi line
        label.setWordWrap(True)

        # getting children region
        value = self.calendar.childrenRegion()

        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Children Region : " + str(value))



# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)

# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()


# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())

Output :
