I have a button that let's users browse for images and a line edit that' suppose to display the path of the image when the button is clicked. Unfortunately after choosing the image nothing get's displayed in the line edit. I thought it was automatic that the path will be displayed like Visual Basic.
So how can I get the path (ex: Pictures/2.jpg) of an image and display it in a line edit when the button is clicked?

In my experience it's not automatic in VB that a line edit and a separate dialog launched by a separate button are in any way related.

By doing exactly what you wrote:
Get the value returned from the open file dialog, i.e the return value from QFileDialog::getOpenFileName() or QFileDialog::selectedFiles() depending on how you created the dialog in the first place.
Put it in the line edit, i.e. QLineEdit::setText()
