0 0 1 minute read

In this article we will see how we can hide the QCalendarWidget according to the user, hiding is exactly opposite of showing the QCalendarWidget. Calendar widget is a big widget therefore there is need to hide it when user don’t need it.

In order to do this we will use hide method with the QCalendarWidget object.
Syntax : calendar.hide()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns 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, 600, 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, 50, 400, 250)
 
        # creating a radio button
        self.radio_button = QRadioButton("Hide", self)
 
        # setting geometry to the radio button
        self.radio_button.setGeometry(100, 10, 200, 40)
 
        # adding action to the radio button
        self.radio_button.clicked.connect(self.do_action)
 
 
    # action called by the radio button
    def do_action(self):
 
        # checking state of the radio button
        if self.radio_button.isChecked():
 
            # hiding the calendar
            self.calendar.hide()
 
        else:
            self.calendar.show()
 
 
 
# create pyqt5 app
App = QApplication(sys.argv)
 
# create the instance of our Window
window = Window()
 
# start the app
sys.exit(App.exec())
