In this article we will see how we can set the date alignment of the QDateEdit. By default the text is aligned on the left-hand side although by changing the alignment we can make the date appear in the center. Changing alignment does not effect the functionality of the date edit.
In order to do this we use setAlignment method with the QDateEdit object
Syntax : date.setAlignment(a_flag)
Argument : It takes alignment flag 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) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
