In this article we will see how we can set layout direction of the QDateTimeEdit widget. Layout direction specifies the direction of the QDateTime, by default the arrow buttons which increment or decrement date time are on the right-hand side although by setting layout direction, they can appear on the left-hand side.
In order to do this we will use setLayoutDirection
method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft)
Argument : It takes direction 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 QDateTimeEdit widget datetimeedit = QDateTimeEdit( self ) # setting geometry datetimeedit.setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 150 , 35 ) # setting layout direction datetimeedit.setLayoutDirection(Qt.RightToLeft) # creating a label label = QLabel( "neveropen" , self ) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry( 100 , 160 , 200 , 60 ) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap( True ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
