In this article we will see how we can set special date-time text to the QDateTimeEdit widget. By setting special text, 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 setSpecialValueText
method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.setSpecialValueText(text)
Argument : It takes string 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 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( "neveropen" , self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 100 , 160 , 200 , 60 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
