I've just started out trying to create a UI from scratch in Qt Creator. Eventually I'm trying to migrate the UI of a legacy app to Qt.
The plan is to create as much of the UI in .ui files as possible to ensure it's visible in the Qt Linguist. If only linguist could use the same ui rendering engine as Designer/Creator, but that's a separate issue.
I've run into what must be a real noob problem. I've created a mainwindow form and a qrc resource file with all our existing images. And all image resources are available when working with the mainwindow form in the Creator Design mode.
Then I added a new widget based form but in Design mode absolutely no resources are available. I did see a note in a forum post that it's possible to have different resource files for each form in a project. But my situation is that I need to have access to the same resource file with images from all forms in my project.
How and where can I connect my existing resource file to the new widget based form?
This was really trivial when working in Designer but here in Creator I just don't understand how to do it. I've been looking everywhere but I must be missing something really obvious here.
Thanks for helping!
