    @Christian-Ehrlicher You're right in saying non-existence of picture to be shown being the cause of issue stated at the deleted one. But for this one, I'm sure it's existent and readable.

      @Stan-Huang said in No show of QPixmap:

      I am still new Qt user.

      Then it's best to study simple examples.

      Create a new, small Qt Widgets application:

      #include <QApplication>
      #include <QPixmap>
      #include <QLabel>
      
      int main (int argc, char **argv)
      {
          QApplication app(argc, argv);
      
          QPixmap pixmap_RoadFault("/exe/bv/image/sdkpic.jpg");
      
          QLabel label;
          label.setPixmap(pixmap_RoadFault);
          label.show();
      
          return app.exec();
      }
      

      By the way, I've restored your other post. Please don't delete posts after you have found a solution.

          @Stan-Huang Come on, be a bit more proactive!
          Did you check whether your pixmap is null as @Christian-Ehrlicher suggested?
          Also, /exe/bv/image/sdkpic.jpg is an absolute path and looks strange - are you REALLY sure it is correct?
          Try what @SGaist suggested.

            @SGaist The return of "file /exe/bv/image/sdkpic.jpg" is:

              OK, it looks like the file is valid.

              Next, check if Qt can understand the file format. What do you get when you call
              qDebug() << QImageReader::supportedImageFormats() ? (remember #include <QDebug> and #include <QImageReader>)

                @Christian-Ehrlicher setPixmap(pixmap_RoadFault) is void, so no return.

                        What if you set the pixmap directly on the QLabel rather than using a brush in the palette ?

                          @Stan-Huang
                          It's not quite clear from the code you posted, but are you sure that palette_RoadFault is not set to something invalid somewhere else in your code, and that palette_RoadFault persists outside the scope of your function?

                          QBrush expects a const reference to a QPixmap, I don't think it will take ownership or make a copy of the QPixmap for drawing.

                                Don't set the geometry since you have a designer based UI, that will let QLabel in its original place to show the pixmap.

                                If it's still not working, then test again with another image. And if possible, share that file with us so that we can test it on our ends.

                                  That's my mistake. A clear statement was executed right after ->show() was executed. That's, show() did its good job, but the shown picture was cleaned immediately. I apologize for my mistake.

                                      I'm glad to hear that you've got it working now.

                                      Like I said 10 days ago, it's best to use simple examples. I even wrote a full program for you that works, but you didn't use it.

                                      @JKSH Yes. I didn't do it 10 days ago due to 9-day lunar new year vacation. Thanks very much.
