Hi,

I don't see any problem in source of Image element. Use "file:///" as prefix to path.
Are you sure that the image path is correct ?
Any error printed to the console ?

Alright Question, Is this the only code in your QML ? It seems you have not given width and height to ListView. Please try again with proper width and height for ListView.
I'm assuming now that the file path is absolutly correct.

Hi,
No this is nly part of the code...Actual thing is i am capturing an image from camera...where image is saved in sd card...so i have to give that path here...yeah i will try by giving width and height for list view and update u

beemaneni

i tried with width and height for list view also but in no vain..did u get that working for u

p3c0

Well i tried this and it worked for me
@
ListView {
id : list
width: 200
height: 300
spacing: 3
model: 10
orientation: ListView.Horizontal
delegate: Rectangle {
anchors { verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter }
width: 70; height: 70;
color: "grey";
border.color: "#000";
radius: 5
Image {
id: imagecap
anchors { centerIn: parent }
source: "file:///home/user1/Pictures/star.jpg"
}
}
}

hi thanks
i have not checked on desktop till now..it works gud for me on desktop..but it does not work on android mobile

On Android it must be a different path.

Hi
Actual code is i am capturing an image and saving that image in one path using "camera" class .I found where the image is saved using "camera.imageCapture.capturedimagepath()" ..path is like "/storage "/sdcard0/DCIM/******etc /img.png"..i assigned the path to listview image source. i deployed the application on android phone and found the path ,bt it is not retrieving in image source in listview...this is exactly my requirement..

Thanks for guiding...:-)

And does it work if you assign some other already existing image ?
any errors in Qt Creator's console when you run the application on phone ?
Is the image that you captured a valid image ? you can try opening it in default image viewer on phone

beemaneni

yeah i have included images through qrc file but nt static paths...in my phone it does not printt anything on console window...yeah image is an valid one and i am able to open and see in phone..

image saved in phone at: "/storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Pictures/IMG_00001.jpg"

the same path i have given as source to image as
"file:///storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Pictures/IMG_00001.jpg"

hi

I found some bug in the aboe code i have given..
Inside the delegate->Rectangle image is placed...I could not access that image outside..How do i do that?

p3c0

Is the image accessible outside Rectangle ? You can try to use Image element directly instead of placing inside the Rectangle. But i don't think so that would be a problem.
