PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Mouse Grabber Property

In this article we will see how we can get the mouse grabber property of the QCalendarWidget. We can access the mouse grabber property with the help of mouseGrabber method, this method returns the calendar or its children that is currently grabbing the mouse input. If no widget in this application is currently grabbing the mouse, None is returned. We can grab the mouse with the help of grabMouse method.

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

Syntax : calendar.mouseGrabber()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It return QWidget 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)

        # setting cursor
        self.calendar.setCursor(Qt.PointingHandCursor)

        # grabbing the keyboard for the calendar
        self.calendar.grabKeyboard()

        # creating label to show the properties
        self.label = QLabel(self)

        # setting geometry to the label
        self.label.setGeometry(100, 280, 250, 60)

        # making label multi line
        self.label.setWordWrap(True)

        # getting mouse grabber property
        value = self.calendar.mouseGrabber()

        # setting text to the label
        self.label.setText("Calendar Mouse grabber : " + 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:
