Specifying different iconsets for the same widget
-
@ <widget class="LedButton" name="m_Standby_btn1" >
<property name="icon" > <iconset resource="VSMgui.qrc">:/images/images/whiteCircle_nt.png</iconset> </property> <property name="text" > <string>Standby--</string> </property> <property name="visible"> <bool>false--</bool> </property></widget>

I want to be able to display a different icon dynamically if this button is selected.
So, I am trying to create a button with 2 png files (such that any one can be used at any point of time)>
Is it possible to specify this in a UI file?Or would I have to create two buttons each with a different png file?
Thanks

Sorry i don't understood you, at first time.
In UI file you can specify this in following way:
@<property name="icon">
<iconset resource="res.qrc">
<normaloff>:/icon/Connect.png</normaloff>
<selectedon>:/icon/Disconnect.png</selectedon>:/icon/Connect.png</iconset>
</property>@or with QtCreator's interface in widgets property window(icon->Normal, Active, Selected,Disabled).

Thanks for the inputs.
I had tried the setIcon() solution and it works most of the time but I keep seeing the following 2 crashes once in a while and so I have decided to implement this dynamic Icon thing in the UI file now to avoid the crash.
This is how I had used the functions
@
// remove explicit reference to QPixmap to avoid the crash that happens
// sporadically
if (bSelected) {
setIcon(QIcon(QString::fromUtf8(":/images/images/whiteCircle_nt.png")));
} else {
setIcon(QIcon(QString::fromUtf8(":/images/images/blueCircle_nt.png")));
}
}

Please let me know if any of you have seen such intermittent crashes wen using setIcon() function.

I tried qxoz's suggestion of adding the <normaloff> and <selectedon> tags but with this, no icon is generated. Here's how my UI file looks like: I even added a <normalon> tag just in case and that did not help either....
