PyQt5 QCalendarWidget - Enabling/Disabling Date Edit Pop-Up

In PyQt5, the QCalendarWidget provides a graphical calendar interface that users can interact with. By default, when a user clicks on a date, a small pop-up may appear, allowing the user to quickly jump to a specific month or year. This pop-up is known as the date edit pop-up.

If you want to enable or disable this pop-up in a QCalendarWidget, you can use the setDateEditEnabled() method. When this method is set to True, the date edit pop-up is enabled, and when set to False, it is disabled.

Here's a simple example to demonstrate this:

import sys from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QCalendarWidget class CalendarDemo(QMainWindow): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # Create a QCalendarWidget self.calendar = QCalendarWidget(self) self.setCentralWidget(self.calendar) # Enable or Disable the date edit pop-up self.calendar.setDateEditEnabled(False) # Set to True to enable # Window settings self.setGeometry(100, 100, 400, 300) self.setWindowTitle('QCalendarWidget Demo') # Run the application app = QApplication(sys.argv) mainWin = CalendarDemo() mainWin.show() sys.exit(app.exec_()) 

In this code:

  • QCalendarWidget is added to a QMainWindow.
  • setDateEditEnabled(False) is used to disable the date edit pop-up. Change False to True if you want to enable it.

When you run this code, you'll see a window with a calendar widget, and depending on the setDateEditEnabled setting, the date edit pop-up will be either enabled or disabled.
