In this article we will see how we can get current section index of the QDateTimeEdit widget. There are many sections in the QDateTimeedit widget like, year, month, hour, minute section. User can select any section with the help of mouse or keyboard and increment and decrement action get performed on the current section. We can set current section programmatically with the help of setCurrentSection method and current section index can be set with the help of setCurrentSectionIndex method.
In order to do this we will use currentSectionIndex method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.currentSectionIndex()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns integer
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 QDateTimeEdit widget datetimeedit = QDateTimeEdit(self) # setting geometry datetimeedit.setGeometry(100, 100, 150, 35) # creating a label label = QLabel("neveropen", self) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry(100, 200, 200, 60) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap(True) # getting current section index value = datetimeedit.currentSectionIndex() # setting text to the label label.setText("Section Index: " + str(value)) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App.exec()) |
Output :
