- \keyword Icons in Qt Quick Controls 2
- \title Icons in Qt Quick Controls
-
- Qt Quick Controls comes with support for icons since Qt 5.10. This means,
- Buttons, item delegates, and menu items are now capable of presenting an
- icon in addition to a text label.
-
- \section1 Using Icons
-
- \l {AbstractButton::icon}{AbstractButton} and \l {Action::icon}{Action} provide
- the following properties through which icons can be set:
- \list
- \li \c icon.name
- \li \c icon.source
- \li \c icon.width
- \li \c icon.height
- \li \c icon.color
- \li \c icon.cache
- \endlist
-
- Theme icons are referenced by a name, and regular icons by a source URL. Both
- \c icon.name and \c icon.source can be set to ensure that an icon will always
- be found. If the icon is found in the theme, it will always be used; even if
- \c icon.source is also set. If the icon is not found in the theme, \c icon.source
- will be used instead.
-
- \code
- Button {
- icon.name: "edit-cut"
- icon.source: "images/cut.png"
- }
- \endcode
-
- Each \l {Styling Qt Quick Controls}{Qt Quick Controls 2 style} requests a
- default icon size and color according to their guidelines, but it is possible
- to override these by setting the \c icon.width, \c icon.height, and \c icon.color
- properties.
-
- The image that is loaded by an icon whose \c width and \c height are not set
- depends on the type of icon in use. For theme icons, the closest available size
- will be chosen. For regular icons, the behavior is the same as the \l {Image::}
- {sourceSize} property of \l Image.
-
- The icon color is specified by default so that it matches the text color in
- different states. In order to use an icon with the original colors, set the
- color to \c "transparent".
-
- \code
- Button {
- icon.color: "transparent"
- icon.source: "images/logo.png"
- }
- \endcode
-
- For buttons, the \l {AbstractButton::}{display} property can be used to control
- how the icon and text are displayed within the button.
-
- \section1 Icon Themes
-
- Compliant icon themes must follow the freedesktop icon theme specification,
- which can be obtained here: \l {http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-theme-spec/icon-theme-spec-latest.html}.
-
- Traditionally, only Linux and UNIX support icon themes on the platform level,
- but it is possible to bundle a compliant icon theme in an application to use
- themed icons on any platform.
-
- The default \l {QIcon::themeSearchPaths()}{icon theme search paths} depend on
- the platform. On Linux and UNIX, the search path will use the \c XDG_DATA_DIRS
- environment variable if available. All platforms have the resource directory
- \c :/icons as a fallback. Custom icon theme search paths can be set with
- \l QIcon::setThemeSearchPaths().
-
- The following example bundles an icon theme called \e mytheme into the application's
- resources using \l {The Qt Resource System}{Qt's resource system}.
-
- \badcode
- <RCC>
- <qresource prefix="/">
- <file>icons/mytheme/index.theme</file>
- <file>icons/mytheme/32x32/myicon.png</file>
- <file>icons/mytheme/32x32@2/myicon.png</file>
- </qresource>
- </RCC>
- \endcode
-
- The \c index.theme file describes the general attributes of the icon theme, and
- lists the available theme icon directories:
-
- \badcode
- [Icon Theme]
- Name=mytheme
- Comment=My Icon Theme
-
- Directories=32x32,32x32@2
-
- [32x32]
- Size=32
- Type=Fixed
-
- [32x32@2]
- Size=32
- Scale=2
- Type=Fixed
- \endcode
-
- In order to use the bundled icon theme, an application should call \l QIcon::setThemeName()
- before loading the main QML file:
-
- \code
- #include <QGuiApplication>
- #include <QQmlApplicationEngine>
- #include <QIcon>
-
- int main(int argc, char *argv[])
- {
- QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);
-
- QIcon::setThemeName("mytheme"); // <--
-
- QQmlApplicationEngine engine;
- engine.load(QUrl(QStringLiteral("qrc:/main.qml")));
- return app.exec();
- }
- \endcode
-
- Now it is possible to use named icons from the bundled icon theme without having
- to specify any fallback source:
-
- \code
- Button {
- icon.name: "myicon"
- }
- \endcode
-
- The \l {Qt Quick Controls - Gallery}{Gallery example} and \l {Qt Quick Controls 2 - Wearable Demo}
- {Wearable Demo} provide complete runnable applications with a bundled icon theme.
