Hi @Taz742

I think that this can be achieved using iconSource property

http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-controls-button.html#iconSource-prop

Hope this can help !

@Taz742

here is a full sample for you,

import QtQuick 2.4
import QtQuick.Controls 1.3
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import QtQuick.Dialogs 1.2

ApplicationWindow {
    title: qsTr("Hello World")
    width: 640
    height: 480
    visible: true

    Button{
        anchors.fill: parent
        text: "ButtonWithIcon"
        iconSource: "qrc:/youricon.png"
    }
}

Correct import file according to your Qt versions,

I advise you to read Button doc.

@Taz742 Next time, please give your thread a meaningful title. And when your problem is solved, mark the thread accordingly. We have a small visual forum guide for newcomers: Hitchhiker's Visual Guide to the Qt Forum and there is also the Forum general guide. One more thing: The image upload feature on our forum is broken, see How to insert image on this forum for a workaround. :-)

May I extend the question: how do I do that using system theme icons rather then resources?

I've successfully implemented an QQuickImageProvider using QIcon::fromTheme() to access system icons and convert it to pixmap. I've registered it with the engine as "sysicons" and it works flawlessly on Images:

Image {
     source: "image://sysicons/" + icon
  }

However, setting iconSource on a button the same way seems to have no effect.

@EvilMav You can simply set iconName to the the name the icon has in the theme and use iconSource as a fallback.

Can anyone provide an example for this? I also want to utilise the system icons, if possible.
