    hello,

    i am trying to display pictures in html inside a QTexEdit but they are not displaying, instead i see a small grey document icone!

    i checked the image url , it is displaying in the web browser, so it is not the url, url is correct.

    i set the html to QTextEdit with setHtml, the html is fully correct, something like :
    <html><head></head><body><img scr="(image url here)" /></body></html>

    why it is not displaying the images ?

      @Xena_o most likely image can't be loaded. HTML support is somewhat limited https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/richtext-html-subset.html
      Is this image a local or remote file? I can't find it now in the docs but (and I might be wrong here, mind you) I think resources as images in this subset have to be local...

      For more information please re-read.

      Kind Regards,
      Artur
