0 0 1 minute read

In this article we will see how we can set grab gesture to the QCalendarWidget. There various grab gestures available for the calendar like tap gesture, a Tap-And-Hold (Long-Tap) gesture, a Pan gesture, a Pinch gesture, a Swipe gesture and a custom gesture.

In order to do this we will use grabGesture method with the QCalendarWidget object.

Syntax : calendar.grabGesture(Qt.TapGesture)

Argument : It takes gesture flag as argument

Return : It return None

Below is the implementation

Python3

# 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, 650, 400) 
  
        # calling method 
        self.UiComponents() 
  
        # showing all the widgets 
        self.show() 
  
    # method for components 
    def UiComponents(self): 
  
        # creating a QCalendarWidget object 
        self.calendar = QCalendarWidget(self) 
  
        # setting geometry to the calendar 
        self.calendar.setGeometry(50, 10, 400, 250) 
  
        # setting cursor 
        self.calendar.setCursor(Qt.PointingHandCursor) 
  
        # setting grab gesture 
        self.calendar.grabGesture(Qt.TapGesture) 
  
# create pyqt5 app 
App = QApplication(sys.argv) 
  
# create the instance of our Window 
window = Window() 
  
# start the app 
sys.exit(App.exec())
