Not displaying image in the window

shalinir

the source code
@QPalette p = palette();
QPixmap pixmap1(":/new/prefix1/BG");

    QDesktopWidget* desktopWidget = QApplication::desktop();
    QRect rect = desktopWidget->availableGeometry();

    QSize size(rect.width() , rect.height());
    QPixmap pixmap(pixmap1.scaled(size));
    p.setBrush(QPalette::Background,  pixmap);
    setPalette(p);@ when the project is built in the output console it displays--QPixmap::scaled: Pixmap is a null pixmap

BG without extension?

So, is the image actually in the resource? Did you deploy the needed image format plugin?

tzander

yeah, like stuk said; you may have mis-typed the filename :)

Also would like to suggest you use QImage for opening the image which is much faster than using a pixmap for nothing but scaling.

I think you should replace
QPixmap pixmap1(":/new/prefix1/BG");
for
QPixmap pixmap1(":/new/prefix1/BG.png");
or
QPixmap pixmap1(":/new/prefix1/BG.jpg");

you need to put the image extension in the code.
