In this article we will see how we can set the maximum height to the QCalendarWidget. Maximum height of the calendar is that height after which it can’t be extended any further, by default when we create a calendar inside the layout and when the window get extended calendar size also increases therefore there is need to set the maximum height.
In order to do this we will use
setMaximumHeight
method with the QCalendarWidget object.Syntax : calendar.setMaximumHeight(500)
Argument : It takes integer as argument
Return : It return 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 # QCalendarWidget Class class Calendar(QCalendarWidget): # constructor def __init__( self , parent = None ): super (Calendar, self ).__init__(parent) self .setMouseTracking( True ) 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 layout layout = QVBoxLayout() # creating a QCalendarWidget object # as Calendar class inherits QCalendarWidget self .calendar = Calendar( self ) # setting cursor self .calendar.setCursor(Qt.PointingHandCursor) # adding calendar tot he layout layout.addWidget( self .calendar) # setting maximum height of the calendar self .calendar.setMaximumHeight( 500 ) # setting layout widget = QWidget() widget.setLayout(layout) self .setCentralWidget(widget) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
Output :
When window get stretched
