In this article, we will see how we can show today’s date in the QCalendarWidget to the screen. Showing today’s date means to show the present date i.e day month and year irrespective of the selected date or at which page the calendar is currently. By default, the calendar shows the today’s date.
In order to do this we will use showToday method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.showToday()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns 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) # creating push button push = QPushButton("Today", self) # setting geometry to the push push.setGeometry(120, 280, 100, 40) # adding action to the push push.clicked.connect(lambda: do_action()) def do_action(): # showing the today's date calendar.showToday()# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
