PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Grab Gesture Property

In this article we will see how we can set grab gesture to the QCalendarWidget. There various grab gestures available for the calendar like tap gesture, a Tap-And-Hold (Long-Tap) gesture, a Pan gesture, a Pinch gesture, a Swipe gesture and a custom gesture.

In order to do this we will use grabGesture method with the QCalendarWidget object.

Syntax : calendar.grabGesture(Qt.TapGesture)

Argument : It takes gesture flag as argument

Return : It return None

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)
  
        # setting grab gesture
        self.calendar.grabGesture(Qt.TapGesture)
  
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
  
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
  
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
