As an addendum to my previous post, I previously had discovered in the Qt documentation, that all pixmaps are placed in a QpixmapCache and the default size for the QpixmapCache is 10240 KB. I wanted to load 2 images with a combined file size of 1846 KB which falls well within the default QPixmapCache size limit. Therefore, one would think that was not the problem. However I have made a smaller version (lower resolution) of the largest file (the one used in the above code) and have found that I no longer receive the SIGSEGV error, and it works as expected. It's not clear to me at this point if the QPixmapCache size limit is the issue or not. Qt provides a way to increase the limit, yet I have yet to find a discussion on the cost of doing so. Unfortunately, I have a requirement for the higher resolution image. In any event, if anyone knows of a discussion or any kind of information that covers this topic, I'd be happy to check it out.
Thanks again to any who may reply.
