In this article we will see how we can set the minimum date to the QCalendarWidget. The minimum date of QCalendarWidget restricts the user selection below the minimum date, i.e. the user can only select dates greater than the specified minimum date. Dates below the minimum date gets disabled.
In order to do this we will use setMinimumDate method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.setMinimumDate(date)
Argument : It takes QDate object as argument
Return : It return None
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, 600, 400) # calling method self.UiComponents() # showing all the widgets self.show() # method for components def UiComponents(self): # creating a QCalendarWidget object calendar = QCalendarWidget(self) # setting geometry to the calendar calendar.setGeometry(10, 10, 400, 250) # lower bound date l_date = QDate(2020, 6, 5) # setting minimum date calendar.setMinimumDate(l_date)# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
