PyQt5 QDateEdit – Removing Maximum Date which user can enter
In this article we will see how we can remove the maximum date of the QDateEdit. Sometimes there is a need to set maximum date so that user can’t enter date which is beyond the maximum date for example when user is asked to enter date of birth, user should not be allowed to enter future date then need for setting maximum date arises. Maximum date can be set with the help of setMaximumDate
method.
In order to do this we use clearMaximumDate
method with the QDateEdit object
Syntax : date.clearMaximumDate()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns None
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 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 QDateEdit widget date = QDateEdit( self ) # setting geometry of the date edit date.setGeometry( 100 , 100 , 200 , 40 ) # alignment a_flag = Qt.AlignCenter # setting alignment of date date.setAlignment(a_flag) # QDate object d = QDate( 2020 , 1 , 1 ) # setting maximum date date.setMaximumDate(d) # removing max date date.clearMaximumDate() # create pyqt5 app App = QApplication(sys.argv) # create the instance of our Window window = Window() # start the app sys.exit(App. exec ()) |
