In this article we will see how we can get the finished signal of the QDateEdit. This signal is emitted editing is finished. This happens when the date edit loses focus and when enter is pressed. This signal is very important as it takes place only when the editing is finished, unlike other signals which get many time in small interval of time.
In order to do this we use editingFinished method with the QDateEdit object
Syntax : date.editingFinished.connect(method)
Argument : It takes method 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, 150, 40) # creating a label label = QLabel("neveropen", self) # setting geometry label.setGeometry(100, 150, 200, 60) # making label multiline label.setWordWrap(True) # getting finished signal date.editingFinished.connect(lambda: date_method()) # method called by date edit def date_method(): # setting text to the label label.setText("Finished Signal Emitted") # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
