PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Accessing Description Property

Last Updated : 05 Jun, 2020

In this article we will see how we can get the description property of the QCalendarWidget. Description property hold the details about the calendar i.e all the details like how it is made and important things related to it. By default description has a empty string although we can add description any time with the help of setAccessibleDescription method.

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

class Window(QMainWindow):
  
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
  
        # setting title
        self.setWindowTitle("Python ")
  
        # setting geometry
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 600, 400)
  
        # calling method
        self.UiComponents()
  
        # showing all the widgets
        self.show()
  
    # method for components
    def UiComponents(self):
  
        # creating a QCalendarWidget object
        calender = QCalendarWidget(self)
  
        # setting geometry to the calender
        calender.setGeometry(10, 10, 400, 250)
  
        # setting description
        calender.setAccessibleDescription("This is a description")
  
        # creating a label
        label = QLabel(self)
  
        # setting geometry to the label
        label.setGeometry(100, 280, 250, 60)
  
        # making label multi line
        label.setWordWrap(True)
  
        # getting description
        value = calender.accessibleDescription()
  
        # setting text to the label
        label.setText("Description : " + str(value))
  
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
