In this article we will see how we can get the mouse tracking property to the QCalendarWidget. If mouse tracking is disabled (the default), the calendar will only receive mouse move events when at least one mouse button is pressed while the mouse is being moved. If mouse tracking is enabled, the calendar will receive mouse move events even if no buttons are pressed. We can set the mouse tracking property with the help of setMouseTracking
method.
In order to do this we will use
hasMouseTracking
method with the QCalendarWidget object.Syntax : calendar.hasMouseTracking()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It return bool
Below is the implementation
Python3
# 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 , 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) # enabling mouse tracking self .calendar.setMouseTracking( True ) # 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 mouse tracking value = self .calendar.hasMouseTracking() # setting text to the label self .label.setText( "Mouse Tracking ? : " + str (value)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
