Adding SVG to resource with alias and referencing in QML

[J.Hilk]

@SPlatten are you sure staleIndicator expects an item and not just the image path?

@SPlatten there is no magic to it.

right click on the sources in QtCreator -> copy path -> use as source in Image component

more important questions:

• Does your SVG follow "tiny 1.2" specifications?
• For what platform was it? IIRC for iOS there was no SVG support and it may not be the only one

[Edit] When Copy Path or Copy URL ?

I did write path, didn't I?
The one starting with :

---

I see no baseProfile="tiny" in your xml code, so, it will probably not work

@SPlatten soooo
first of, I would like to apologise, copy url is actually the correct one :D

secondly, do use a "tiny" svg it will work:

//main.qml
import QtQuick 2.15
import QtQuick.Controls 2.15
import QtQuick.Window 2.15
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.15

Window {
    id: root
    width: 800
    height: 600
    visible: true

    Image{
        id:img
        anchors.fill: parent
        source: "qrc:/SomeAliasedSVG.svg"
    }
}

rsc.qrc
<RCC>
    <qresource prefix="/">
        <file>main.qml</file>
        <file alias="SomeAliasedSVG.svg">01_01.svg</file>
    </qresource>
</RCC>

//svg file
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.2" baseProfile="tiny"
     viewBox="0 0 30 30">
  <desc>Example SVG file</desc>
  <rect x="10" y="10" width="10" height="10" fill="red"/>
</svg>

works exactly as expected:

@SPlatten 🤷‍♂️

can you make a minimal compile able example for us ?

@SPlatten it's not really compile able, is it ?
I don't have your *pro, nor your main.cpp file, nor the folder structure you claim to have.

also giving your Image a width and height does help, because its super tiny without it

Are they ?

They are relevant to have a compilable example...

@SPlatten Yes. You can drop qrc: and alias + root / is good enough.
