PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Setting Background Role
In this article, we will see how we set the background role to the QCalendarWidget. Background role defines the brush from the calendar’s palette that is used to render the background. If no explicit background role is set, the calendar inherits its parent widget’s background role.
In order to do this we will use setBackgroundRole method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.setBackgroundRole(palette_object)
Argument : It takes QPalette.ColorRole object argument
Return : It return None
Below is the implementation
Python3
