<![CDATA[Background in QTableWidget]]>Hi. I have class inherited from QTableWidget. I want to set background from file, but line
"setStyleSheet("background-image: url("board.jpg");");" or
setStyleSheet("background-image: url(./board.jpg);") doesn't work... What is solution?

This is a relative path so the file must be in the same folder as the executable.

On a related note, since you are using Qt, you should use the *nix forward slash notation, it will avoid many problem with paths

Where should be file board.jpg? In folder "build-Checkers_V01-Desktop_Qt_5_3_MSVC2013_64bit-Debug" or just in "Checkers_V01"?

I think this can be done via QPalette/QPixmap:
@ QTableWidget* table = new QTableWidget;

QPalette palette = table->palette();
QPixmap jpgImage( "board.jpg");
palette.setBrush(QPalette::Base, QBrush(jpgImage));
table->setPalette(palette);@

Try it, I didn't test it..
