How to create a QPixmap from a NSImage or CGImageRef

[jrpat]

I'm trying to do the same thing as this post: How to use SF Symbols dynamically with QIcon::fromTheme()?

The suggestion in that post – going from NSImage → CGImageRef → QPixmap – seemed like an option, but QtMac::fromCGImageRef is now obsolete, and this blog post says there is no replacement.

Does anyone have a way to get a QPixmap from an NSImage in Qt6?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to devnet,

You can check the sources of the QtMac module to see how it is done. These helper functions were not overly complex.

The relevant helper function is qt_mac_toQImage. Then QPixmap::fromImage can be used to get a QPixmap (example).
