Qt5.7/C++ - Window icon shows, can't show control icons.

[jimbo]

Hello,

Windows 10 32 bit
Qt5.7, QtCreator 4.1.0

I can get the QMainWindow showing an icon.

Pro file
RESOURCES += gui_icons.qrc
RC_ICONS = myApp.ico

Pro file
RESOURCES += gui_icons.qrc
RC_ICONS = myApp.ico

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

gui_icons.qrc
<RCC>
    <qresource prefix="/images">
        <file>images/browse.ico</file>
        <file>images/myApp.ico</file>
    </qresource>
</RCC>

gui_icons.qrc
<RCC>
    <qresource prefix="/images">
        <file>images/browse.ico</file>
        <file>images/myApp.ico</file>
    </qresource>
</RCC>

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I have a QToolButton on the QMainWindow generated from Designer.
I have in my source code:-

ui->tbBrowse->setIcon(QIcon ("browse.ico"));

ui->tbBrowse->setIcon(QIcon ("browse.ico"));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I've also set the icon in Designer.
The icon never shows.
What steps am I missing?

A resource path starts with ":" and your path is also missing the "images" prefix.

Hello anda_skoa

ui->tbBrowse->setIcon(QIcon (":/images/images/browse.ico"));

ui->tbBrowse->setIcon(QIcon (":/images/images/browse.ico"));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Does the trick, Thanks.
