In this article we will see how we can get the mask of the QCalendarWidget. Mask are basically used to hide the calendar, with the help of mask user will not be able to see the whole calendar although the calendar will still exist but there will be mask on it.We can set mask to the calendar with the help of setMask method.
In order to do this we will use
maskmethod with the QCalendarWidget object.Syntax : calendar.mask()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It return QRegion object
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 QCalendarWidget object # as Calendar class inherits QCalendarWidget self.calendar = Calendar(self) # setting cursor self.calendar.setCursor(Qt.PointingHandCursor) # setting geometry to the calendar self.calendar.setGeometry(20, 20, 300, 240) # QRect object rect = QRect(10, 10, 200, 100) # creating a QRegion region = QRegion(rect) # setting mask to the calendar self.calendar.setMask(region) # creating a label label = QLabel(self) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry(100, 280, 300, 60) # creating label multi line label.setWordWrap(True) # getting mask mask = self.calendar.mask() # setting text to the label label.setText(str(mask)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
