In this article we will see how we can set the horizontal header format of the QCalenderWidget. Horizontal header is the place in QCalenderWidget which shows the days name by default short form of days are show for example Monday is displayed as Mon, below is the horizontal header representation.
There are many formats available for the horizontal header like SingleLetterDayNames, its value is 1 and this format displays only the first letter of the days name, ShortDayNames, it is the default format, its value is 2 and this format displays only the short form of the days name. And LongDayNames its value is 3 and this format displays whole name of the days.
In order to do this we use
setHorizontalHeaderFormatmethod with the QCalendarWidget objectSyntax : calender.setHorizontalHeaderFormat(format)
Argument : It takes Horizontal Header format as argument
Return : It returns None
Below is the implementation
# 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 calender = QCalendarWidget(self) # setting geometry to the calender calender.setGeometry(50, 50, 400, 250) # setting calender horizontal header format calender.setHorizontalHeaderFormat(QCalendarWidget.LongDayNames) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
