<div class="descr"> <a name="details"></a>
|
|
<p class="centerAlign"><img src="images/designer-resources-editing.png" alt="" /></p><p><i>Qt Designer</i> fully supports the <a href="resources.html">Qt Resource System</a>, enabling resources to be specified together with forms as they are designed. To aid designers and developers manage resources for their applications, <i>Qt Designer</i>'s resource editor allows resources to be defined on a per-form basis. In other words, each form can have a separate resource file.</p>
|
|
<a name="defining-a-resource-file"></a>
|
|
<h2>Defining a Resource File</h2>
|
|
<p>To specify a resource file you must enable the resource editor by opening the <b>Tools</b> menu, and switching on the <b>Resource Browser</b> option.</p>
|
|
<a name="resourcefiles"></a><table class="generic">
|
|
<tr valign="top" class="odd"><td ><img src="images/designer-resource-browser.png" alt="" /></td><td ><b>Resource Files</b><p>Within the resource browser, you can open existing resource files or create new ones. Click the <b>Edit Resources</b> button <img src="images/designer-edit-resources-button.png" alt="" /> to edit your resources. To reload resources, click on the <b>Reload</b> button <img src="images/designer-reload-resources-button.png" alt="" /> .</p>
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
<p>Once a resource file is loaded, you can create or remove entries in it using the given <b>Add Files</b> <img src="images/designer-add-resource-entry-button.png" alt="" /> and <b>Remove Files</b> <img src="images/designer-remove-resource-entry-button.png" alt="" /> buttons, and specify resources (e.g., images) using the <b>Add Files</b> button <img src="images/designer-add-files-button.png" alt="" /> . Note that these resources must reside within the current resource file's directory or one of its subdirectories.</p>
|
|
<a name="editresource"></a><table class="generic">
|
|
<tr valign="top" class="odd"><td ><img src="images/designer-edit-resource.png" alt="" /></td><td ><b>Editing Resource Files</b><p>Press the <img src="images/designer-add-resource-entry-button.png" alt="" /> button to add a new resource entry to the file. Then use the <b>Add Files</b> button <img src="images/designer-add-files-button.png" alt="" /> to specify the resource.</p>
|
|
<p>You can remove resources by selecting the corresponding entry in the resource editor, and pressing the <img src="images/designer-remove-resource-entry-button.png" alt="" /> button.</p>
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
<a name="using-the-resources"></a>
|
|
<h2>Using the Resources</h2>
|
|
<p>Once the resources are defined you can use them actively when composing your form. For example, you might want to create a tool button using an icon specified in the resource file.</p>
|
|
<a name="usingresources"></a><table class="generic">
|
|
<tr valign="top" class="odd"><td ><img src="images/designer-resources-using.png" alt="" /></td><td ><b>Using Resources</b><p>When changing properties with values that may be defined within a resource file, <i>Qt Designer</i>'s property editor allows you to specify a resource in addition to the option of selecting a source file in the ordinary way.</p>
|
|
</td></tr>
|
|
<tr valign="top" class="even"><td ><img src="images/designer-resource-selector.png" alt="" /></td><td ><b>Selecting a Resource</b><p>You can open the resource selector by clicking <b>Choose Resource...</b> to add resources any time during the design process.</p>
