In this article we will see how we can find the child of QCalendarWidget using the type of the child. Calendar is not a stand-alone widget it consist of small widgets that are called a child, for example, the dates and spin box for year and drop-down menu for the month collectively make the calendar
In order to do this we will use findChild method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.findChild(type)
Argument : It takes type of the child argument
Return : It return child object
Note : If there is more than one child with same type then it will return that widget who comes first in the child stack
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing librariesfrom PyQt5.QtWidgets import *from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGuifrom PyQt5.QtGui import *from PyQt5.QtCore import *import sysclass Window(QMainWindow): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # setting title self.setWindowTitle("Python ") # setting geometry self.setGeometry(100, 100, 650, 400) # calling method self.UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self.show() # method for components def UiComponents(self): # creating a QCalendarWidget object self.calendar = QCalendarWidget(self) # setting geometry to the calendar self.calendar.setGeometry(50, 10, 400, 250) # setting cursor self.calendar.setCursor(Qt.PointingHandCursor) # creating label to show the properties self.label = QLabel(self) # setting geometry to the label self.label.setGeometry(100, 280, 250, 60) # making label multi line self.label.setWordWrap(True) # getting child through type value = self.calendar.findChild(QItemDelegate) # setting text to the label self.label.setText("Child :" + str(value))# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
