In this article we will see how we can set special date-time text to the QDateTimeEdit widget. By setting special text, the QDateTimeEdit display this special text instead of a date-time value whenever the current value is equal to minimum date time.
In order to do this we will use setSpecialValueText method with the QDateTimeEdit object.
Syntax : datetimeedit.setSpecialValueText(text)
Argument : It takes string 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) # minimum date time min_dt = QDateTime(2020, 10, 10, 11, 30) # setting minimum date time datetimeedit.setMinimumDateTime(min_dt) # text text = "GfG Date Time" # setting special text to the date time edit datetimeedit.setSpecialValueText(text) # 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()) |
Output :
