Can I set QLabel background image using setProperty()?

[ericg22]

Hello Qt'perts,

Is there a way to set a QLabel background-image programmatically from a pixmap, eg using QLabel::setProperty(). I realize it can be set from a path using setStylesheet() but in this case I only have access to the actual QPixmap and not the resource path. Any code examples as to how to do this would be much appreciated.

Hi,

Why not just set an image on the QLabel ?

@SGaist I cannot set the label's pixamp because it is being used to display text and I want to add the image as background to the text.

Since you can't do it from a style sheet, draw your text on the pixmap before setting it on the label. That would likely be simpler.
