PyQt5 QDateEdit - Stepping Down Date

PyQt5 QDateEdit - Stepping Down Date

In PyQt5, if you're working with a QDateEdit widget and you want to step down (decrement) the date, you can make use of the stepBy method. The stepBy method is used to increment or decrement the date based on steps.

To decrement the date in a QDateEdit widget by one day:

  • Use the stepBy method with -1 as the argument.

Here's a basic example that demonstrates how you can step down the date using a button:

import sys from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout, QDateEdit, QPushButton class DemoApp(QWidget): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.layout = QVBoxLayout() self.date_edit = QDateEdit(self) self.step_down_button = QPushButton("Step Down Date", self) self.step_down_button.clicked.connect(self.decrement_date) self.layout.addWidget(self.date_edit) self.layout.addWidget(self.step_down_button) self.setLayout(self.layout) def decrement_date(self): # Step down by one day self.date_edit.stepBy(-1) if __name__ == '__main__': app = QApplication(sys.argv) window = DemoApp() window.show() sys.exit(app.exec_())

In the code above, we have a QDateEdit widget and a button. When the button is clicked, it calls the decrement_date function, which steps down the date in the QDateEdit widget by one day.
