Nor was I. ;) It looks like I'm going to stick with PyQt at the moment... I'm trying to port a PyQt util from Redhat 7.2 to 7.3. That means PyQt 2.3.1 to PyQt 3.0.3 (despite the package name of 3.1)... (and that version has a QInputDialog.getText bug (fixed in 3.2.4?) and no RH update *grumble*) ... and I was wanting to polish it up a bit with 'standard' icons.On 04-Dec-02 Richard Jones wrote:On Thu, 5 Dec 2002 9:28 am, Jim Bublitz wrote:On 04-Dec-02 Eli Carter wrote:Ok, this is probably a dumb question, but...In kde3, I've noticed that there are some 'standard' icons used in the menus for things like '&Quit'. Is there a pre-made QIconSet or QPixmap to grab, or do I need to find the file and load from it?On a SuSE system, they're most likely under /opt/kde3/share/icons/. I'd expect a fairly similar location (except rooted somewhere other than /opt perhaps) for other distributions.
Don't the icons change according to the user's selected icon set? How do we hook into that?I'm not really sure - KIconLoader or KIconTheme (or both)? Also, I believe for the toolbar, KStdAction finds the icons automatically if you use that to set up icons and menus. Obviously, custom actions will require custom icons - I think the app's directory under kde3/share is searched for those unless you specify a different path. I haven't looked at this stuff in a while and couldn't find anything poking around quickly. I guess I'd start with the KStdAction and KAction docs and whatever UI design docs are on the KDE web site. I wasn't sure if the original post was in regard to using KDE icons with PyQt or PyKDE.
I think I'll just find where the icon lives and hard-code it for now.
Thanks for the feedback... I'll have to revisit it after I figure out how I want to deal with RedHat issues.
Thanks,
Eli
