In this article we will see how we can get special date time text of the QDateTimeEdit widget. By setting special text with the help of setSpecialValueText
method, the QDateTimeEdit display this special text instead of a date time value whenever the current value is equal to minimum date time.
In order to do this we will use specialValueText
method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.specialValueText()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns string
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 )
# minimum date time
min_dt = QDateTime( 2020 , 10 , 10 , 11 , 30 )
# setting minimum date time
datetimeedit.setMinimumDateTime(min_dt)
# text
text = "GfG Date Time"
# setting special text to the date time edit
datetimeedit.setSpecialValueText(text)
# 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 special text
value = datetimeedit.specialValueText()
# setting text to the label
label.setText( "Special Text : " + str (value))
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
