PyQt5 QDateEdit - Getting Name Property

PyQt5 QDateEdit - Getting Name Property

In PyQt5, widgets don't have a direct "name" property like some other GUI frameworks. However, widgets inherit from QObject, which provides an objectName property. This can be used to get or set a name for any widget, including QDateEdit.

You can set the objectName property using the setObjectName() method and retrieve it using the objectName() method.

Here's a simple example demonstrating how to use the objectName property with QDateEdit:

import sys from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout, QDateEdit, QPushButton, QLabel class App(QWidget): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.initUI() def initUI(self): layout = QVBoxLayout(self) self.dateEdit = QDateEdit(self) # Set the objectName for the QDateEdit widget self.dateEdit.setObjectName("myDateEdit") layout.addWidget(self.dateEdit) self.label = QLabel("", self) layout.addWidget(self.label) btn = QPushButton("Get Name of QDateEdit", self) btn.clicked.connect(self.getName) layout.addWidget(btn) self.setLayout(layout) self.setWindowTitle('QDateEdit objectName Example') self.show() def getName(self): # Get the objectName for the QDateEdit widget name = self.dateEdit.objectName() self.label.setText(f"The object name of the QDateEdit is: {name}") if __name__ == '__main__': app = QApplication(sys.argv) ex = App() sys.exit(app.exec_())

In this example, we set the objectName of the QDateEdit widget to "myDateEdit", and by clicking the button, the name is retrieved and displayed in a QLabel.
