showing icons - setPixmap problem

Hello!

I've got problem with showing icons. I've read code from program where icons were used (on buttons or just somewhere on window). I've wrote code (based on that program):

Code:

---

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
 
    logoLabel = new QLabel(this);
    logoLabel->setPixmap(QPixmap(":/images/icon1.png"));
    ui->layout->addWidget(logoLabel);
 
    button = new QPushButton;
    button->setIcon(QIcon(":/images/icon2.png"));
    button->setIconSize(QSize(48, 48));
    button->setFixedSize(150, 60);
    ui->layout->addWidget(button);
}

---

but nothing shows. No icons (button is 'empty'). Images are in directory images/ where my source code is. What I'm doing wrong?

thanks in advance
best regards

":/foo" means that the image is in the Qt Resource System. Either give an absolute path, a correct relative path or the best: use the resource system. You will find a good explanation in the docs.

Thank a lot! I've created resource file, and now it works fine!

I need to refresh that thread.
Since You've told me I'm using resource files. But sometimes I need to do to read graphics from files to put it for example into QLabel? With resource files it's easy, but sometimes I have a lot of files in one resource file, and binary is very big.

thanks in advance

just type the path without ":/" on the begining - then a graphics will be reading from files
