PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Getting accept drops property
In this article we will see how we can get the accept drop property of the QCalendarWidget. We know we can make drag enabled using setDragEnabled method with calendar object, but what is the use of dragging the text we can’t drop it any where. Allowing accept drop means that calendar has a property now to accept the drop text of the other calendar widget. Accepting drops is used for setting year as it is the spin box object as child, by default this property is false but can be changed with the help of setAcceptDrops method.
In order to do this we will use acceptDrops method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.acceptDrops()
Argument : It takes no argument
Action Performed : It return bool
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) # accepting drops calendar.setAcceptDrops(True) # creating a label label = QLabel(self) # setting geometry to the label label.setGeometry(100, 280, 250, 60) # making label multi line label.setWordWrap(True) # getting accept drops property value = calendar.acceptDrops() # setting text to the label label.setText("Accept drop : " + str(value))# create pyqt5 appApp = QApplication(sys.argv)# create the instance of our Windowwindow = Window()# start the appsys.exit(App.exec()) |
