In this article we will see how we can get layout direction of the QDateTimeEdit widget. Layout direction specifies the direction of the QDateTime, by default the arrow buttons which increment or decrement date-time are on the right-hand side although by setting layout direction with the help of setLayoutDirection
method, they can appear on the left-hand side.
In order to do this we will use layoutDirection
method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.layoutDirection()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns direction object but when printed it shows the value associated with it
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 QDateTimeEdit widget
datetimeedit = QDateTimeEdit( self )
# setting geometry
datetimeedit.setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 150 , 35 )
# setting layout direction
datetimeedit.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft)
# creating a label
label = QLabel( "GeeksforGeeks" , self )
# setting geometry to the label
label.setGeometry( 100 , 160 , 200 , 60 )
# making label multi line
label.setWordWrap( True )
# getting layout direction
value = datetimeedit.layoutDirection()
# setting text to the label
label.setText( "Layout Direction " + str (value))
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
