@poggers What do you mean by this "separate window"? Are you talking about the popup, see dateEditEnabled, also Using a Pop-up Calendar Widget? Or something else?

Now it is working here, I connect the buttons action to the calendar using: currentDate.setFullYear(aNewYear, aNewMonth, aNewDay); calendar.selectedDate = new Date(aNewYear, aNewMonth, aNewDay); calendar.update(); Now I have a calendar and a custom navigation bar thanks for all!

@Nathaniel why do you believe this is "sloppy"?! Actually it is the exact difference. In common UX concepts you select only with left mouse button and show a context menu with right mouse button. To get events you can install an eventfilter on the view: calendarWidget->findChild<QTableView*>("qt_calendar_calendarview")->installEventFilter( this );

Hi The signal Activated also triggers for db clicks. so connect(ui->calendarWidget, QCalendarWidget::activated, this , MainWindow::CalendarDBClick); and the slot function public slots: void CalendarDBClick(const QDate& Date) { setWindowTitle(Date.toString("dd.MM.yyyy")); } No need to subclass, just hook up signal.

@mrjj Oh thank you very much. It's a good thing to learn!

you mean the calendar Widget ? As far as I know, it has no concept of appointments so even that it supports styling, it is not really possible to by styling. But, you can quite easy draw it yourself and add the needed support for appointment. https://wiki.qt.io/How_to_create_a_custom_calender_widget
