About adding an existing folder in Qt Creator
-
@jsulm Thanks for reply.
I made a sample.
Under Resources, I created the folder "labels".
Under "labels", I created the folder "test".
In the folder "test", I created the subfolders "test1", "test2" and "test3".
In each of these subfolders "test1", "test2", "test3", there is one png file.
I added the file located in "test1" to the project.
Here is the screenshot what I get.
I don't agree because when I click on the small right arrow, I get the file and not the tree structure.@mulfycrowh said in About adding an existing folder in Qt Creator:

I can't see it.
Also, you did not mention that you are trying to add resource files.
As shown here https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/resources.html you can have subfolders:<!DOCTYPE RCC><RCC version="1.0"> <qresource> <file>images/copy.png</file> <file>images/cut.png</file> <file>images/new.png</file> <file>images/open.png</file> <file>images/paste.png</file> <file>images/save.png</file> </qresource> </RCC>Here "images" is a subfolder.

@jsulm How do I share a picture?
@mulfycrowh You can post it to some file sharing service and post the link here.

@mulfycrowh How does your resource file look like?

@mulfycrowh How does your resource file look like?
@jsulm At the end of the file, I have a big plus sign and beside: "Resources/labels/test/test1/add_80_4k.png

@jsulm As far I understand you cannot see the tree structure of a folder (or subfolder) that doesn't have any file in it. Right?
@mulfycrowh
As far as I know that is correct. Same in e.g.git, and others. -

Ingittoo you mean? That does not let you checkin an empty folder/directory (AFAIK). Same I think for Visual Studio, it only really deals with files in a project. -

Hi.
Im not sure what the weird part is?
It will show the tree of folders
However, you cant add empty folders to a res file, as that would be pointless as
you cannot write new files to it so would really not be useful for image/icons management. :) -

I say that‘s weird because The folder management is completely different from Windows. In Windows you can have folders with subfolders with files and no file in these folders..
