In this article we will see how we can get select both the date and time text of QDateTimeEdit widget. QDateTime is basically a combination of QDate and QTime i.e it has both date and time. And QDateTimeEdit widget is used to show or receive the QDateTime. Selected text can be used for copying or removing.
In order to do this we will use selectAll method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.selectAll()
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 , 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 date time to it
datetimeedit.setDateTime(QDateTime( 2020 , 10 , 10 , 11 , 30 ))
# time
time = QTime( 21 , 45 )
# setting only time
datetimeedit.setTime(time)
# creating a push button
push = QPushButton( "Select All" , self )
# setting geometry of the push button
push.setGeometry( 100 , 150 , 120 , 30 )
# adding action to the push button
# selecting all the text
push.clicked.connect( lambda : datetimeedit.selectAll())
# create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv)
# create the instance of our Window window = Window()
# start the app sys.exit(App. exec ())
