PyQt5 QCalendarWidget – Setting Border to the Navigation Bar
In this article we will see how we can set background color to the navigation bar of the QCalendarWidget. In calendar navigation bar is the bar at the top which consist of some buttons, setting background to QCalendarWidget is not like setting background color to the other widgets, calendar is widget which has many child i.e component we can set border to independent component as well. Below is how the navigation bar with background color will look like
In order to do this we will use setStyleSheet
method with the QCalendarWidget object, below is the style sheet code
QCalendarWidget QWidget#qt_calendar_navigationbar { background-color : lightgreen; }
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 # QCalendarWidget Class class Calendar(QCalendarWidget): # constructor def __init__( self , parent = None ): super (Calendar, self ).__init__(parent) 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 QCalendarWidget object # as Calendar class inherits QCalendarWidget self .calendar = Calendar( self ) # setting cursor self .calendar.setCursor(Qt.PointingHandCursor) # setting size of the calendar self .calendar.resize( 350 , 240 ) # move the calendar self .calendar.move( 10 , 10 ) # setting stylesheet # adding background color to the calendar's navigation bar # adding another background color when mouse hover over it self .calendar.setStyleSheet( "QCalendarWidget QWidget# qt_calendar_navigationbar" "{" "background-color : lightgreen;" "}" "QCalendarWidget QWidget# qt_calendar_navigationbar::hover" "{" "background-color : cyan;" "}" ) # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
