QDateEntry: setting current date as mimimum

Hey Rich,

Your issue is not specific to QDateEntry, it's essentially just a
misplaced parenthesis:

Here you're passing "cont_date.setMinimumDate(QDate(self.now_date))" and
"cont_date.setSizePolicy(qtw.QSizePolicy.Fixed, qtw.QSizePolicy.Preferred)"
as __init__ arguments to the qtw.QDateEntry(...) class.

Instead, either call those after constructing the object:

    cont_date = qtw.QDateEntry(
        self,
        date = qtc.QDate.currentDate(),
        calendarPopup = True,
        displayFormat = 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm',
    )
    cont_date.setMinimumDate(QDate(self.now_date))
    cont_date.setSizePolicy(qtw.QSizePolicy.Fixed, qtw.QSizePolicy.Preferred)

or perhaps pass them as keyword arguments like you do for the others:

    cont_date = qtw.QDateEntry(
        self,
        date = qtc.QDate.currentDate(),
        calendarPopup = True,
        displayFormat = 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm',
        minimumDate = QDate(self.now_date),
        sizePolicy = (qtw.QSizePolicy.Fixed, qtw.QSizePolicy.Preferred),
    )

(untested, no idea if that works, especially for the sizePolicy)
