Apply background-image to a Qmenu

[kernellstudios]

Hi everyone,

I was trying to apply an image background to a Qmenu. So far, I only can put a color background. Im using Qt 4.7.1 for Mac OSX and QT Creator 2.0.1. Suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
David.

Try this

setStyleSheet("QMenu#objectname {background-image: url(:/images/folder name/ image format);}");

Hi, thanks for your answer!
I tried that way too, and its not kicking. I tried using qss and setting styles within code:

qss stylesheet
@
Qmenu{
background-image: url(':/some_pic.png');
border: solid 1px #FFF;
}
@

within code:
@
QMenu *menu = new QMenu;
menu->addAction('Item 1');
...
menu->setStyleSheet("QMenu#menu{ background-image: url(:/some_pic.png); }"
//also tried menu->setStyleSheet("QMenu{ background-image: url(:/some_pic.png); }"

Do you have the image you want to show in your resources? If I remember correctly refers :/ to you resources. You can try url("some_pic.png") to load a image from disk.
