QTextEdit and setStyle

[adnan]

There is a mistake in the syntax:
@edit->setStyleSheet("background-image: url(bg.png)");@

It should be:
@edit->setStyleSheet("background-image: url(:/bg.png)");@
and "bg.png "must be" added to resource file and should in source directory

I suppose there is only one way I can help you now. Make a zip file of your project and upload the download link so that i can download the project and look for the problem.

You had committed a silly mistake in adding the image to resource file. The prefix should had been "/" but it was "/images" in your case (it is also correct but) your folder containing the image was also named as "image", so the address of image should have been "/images/images/bn.jpg". It is working fine now. I have changed the prefix to "/" from "/images". So now the valid address is "/images/bn.jpg"

Hi
Thanks, but it still does not work for me
There must be something different in our systems, but I dont know what!
do you have any ideas?

[adnan]

As you said it is not working under windows but working under linux perhaps It’s the windows style that prevents it then.

[GrahamL]

I take it that you are using Linux then?

[adnan]

Yes i use ubuntu

I also have similar problems like GTK+ style of linux does not allow for changing background color of progress bar
