In this article we will see how we can assign a description to the QDateEdit. Description property holds the date edit’s description as seen by assistive technologies. The accessible description of a date edit should convey what date edit does. While the accessible name should be a short and concise string (e.g. Office Date), the description should give more context, such as Saves the selected date.
In order to do this we use setAccessibleDescription
method with the QDateEdit object
Syntax : date.setAccessibleDescription(text)
Argument : It takes string 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 , 500 , 400 )
# calling method
self .UiComponents()
# showing all the widgets
self .show()
# method for components
def UiComponents( self ):
# creating a QDateEdit widget
date = QDateEdit( self )
# setting geometry of the date edit
date.setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 200 , 40 )
# alignment
a_flag = Qt.AlignCenter
# setting alignment of date
date.setAlignment(a_flag)
# text
text = "Allow user to set date"
# setting description
date.setAccessibleDescription(text)
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
