In this article we will see how we get the auto fill property of the QCalendarWidget, this property will cause Qt to fill the background of the calendar before invoking the paint event. The color used is defined by the QPalette. By default this property is false which can be changed with the help of setAutoFillBackground method.
In order to do this we will use autoFillBackground method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.autoFillBackground(True)
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It return bool
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 , 600 , 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 )
# setting style sheet
self .calendar.setStyleSheet( "background : lightgreen;" )
# enabling auto fill background
self .calendar.setAutoFillBackground( True )
# creating a label
label = QLabel( self )
# setting geometry
label.setGeometry( 120 , 280 , 200 , 60 )
# making it multi line
label.setWordWrap( True )
# getting the auto fill background property
value = self .calendar.autoFillBackground()
# setting text to the label
label.setText( "Auto Fill Background : " + str (value))
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
