@Pradeep-Kumar said in Image reading from resource file giving warning:

iCCP chunk from the PNG image.

Its part of the format
http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/spec/1.2/PNG-Chunks.html#C.iCCP
Its the color profile area.

the warning comes from app like photoshop on windows adding a profile that libpng consider not ok.
So it says to you "your image contains a known bad profile and i am warning you about it"
Its not a Qt thing but the pnglib that does it.

Been there for some years now :;)
Read the links that @Ratzz provides.
I also looked at in at some point.
U can rebuild the png plugin and disable warning or use an image program to remove the (known) fault
profile.
Or simply ignore it. Colors looked fine for all RGB i tested.
Also after upgrading to 5.7 i have not seen it since.
Still use the same version of photoshop so something might have changed.
(or they fixed photoshop) :)

@Pradeep-Kumar
there are tons of info on google
http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=22444
But any method works as long as warning is removed.

Pradeep Kumar

yep that command was one of the method where warnings was removed,
i observed in linux , the app crashed because of warning, will it treat it as error in some paltforms?.

Thanks,

@Pradeep-Kumar
Hi
no it should always be a warning.
Should never cause a crash.
That must be something else.

Pradeep Kumar
