In this article we will see how we can show the date of the QCalendarWidget to the screen. Showing the selected date will change the page if year and month are different. User can select the date with the help of mouse or keyboard and programmatically it can be set with the help of setSelectedDate method.
In order to do this we will use showSelectedDate method with the QCalendarWidget object. Syntax : calendar.showSelectedDate() Argument : It takes no argument Return : It returns None
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
calendar = QCalendarWidget( self )
# setting geometry to the calendar
calendar.setGeometry( 10 , 10 , 400 , 250 )
# creating push button
push = QPushButton( "Selected Date" , self )
# setting geometry to the push
push.setGeometry( 120 , 280 , 100 , 40 )
# adding action to the push
push.clicked.connect( lambda : do_action())
def do_action():
# showing the selected date
calendar.showSelectedDate()
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
