In this article we will see how we can set maximum date time to the QDateEdit. Sometime there is a need to set maximum date time so that user can’t enter date time which are beyond the maximum date time. We can set date time to date edit with the help of setDateTime method.
In order to do this we use setMaximumDateTime method with the QDateEdit object
Syntax : date.setMaximumDateTime(date_time)
Argument : It takes QDateTime object as argument
Return : It returns None
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 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 QDateEdit widget date = QDateEdit(self) # setting geometry of the date edit date.setGeometry(100, 100, 200, 40) # alignment a_flag = Qt.AlignCenter # setting alignment of date date.setAlignment(a_flag) # QDate object d = QDateTime(2020, 1, 1, 10, 30) # setting maximum date time date.setMaximumDateTime(d) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
