gio: file:://home/embedded/embe/learning project/qtqml/06apr23/india.png: Operation not supported

Shouldn't the file scheme start by a triple slash ?

Hi,

Your URL looks wrong. There's no double ˋ:ˋ in URL schemes.

Qt.openUrlExternally("file://home/dse/edr/learning project/qtqml/06apr23/def.png")

Start by verifying what files do exist out of india.png and def.png, we don't know rhat.

@Qt-embedded-developer Use the static method to create url paths:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qurl.html#fromLocalFile

auto url = QUrl::fromLocalFile("/home/embedded/embe/learning project/qtqml/06apr23/india.png");
Qt.openUrlExternally(url);

It will save you time and mistakes.
