0 0 1 minute read

In this article we will see how we can get the section count 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 selected section.

In order to do this we will use sectionCount method with the QDateTimeEdit object.

Syntax : datetimeedit.sectionCount()

Argument : It takes no argument

Return : It returns integer

Below is the implementation

# importing libraries

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("zambiatek", self) 
  
        # setting geometry to the label 
        label.setGeometry(100, 200, 200, 60) 
  
        # making label multi line 
        label.setWordWrap(True) 
  
        # getting section count 
        value = datetimeedit.sectionCount() 
  
        # setting text to the label 
        label.setText("Section Count : " + str(value)) 
  
          
  
  
  
# create pyqt5 app 
App = QApplication(sys.argv) 
  
# create the instance of our Window 
window = Window() 
  
# start the app 
sys.exit(App.exec())
