Rather than looking at what is necessary to make files compiled into an executable visible to an external process, could we step back a bit to find out what we're trying to accomplish?
What do you think will be done differently by having "qrc:///images /menu-background.jpg" passed through the thumbnailer rather than being loaded directly by the Image component? If this is just a toy example and your real use case is a little more complex, could you describe that instead? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to thumbnailer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1550706 Title: Thumbnails not working with qrc Status in Client Developer Experience: New Status in thumbnailer package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The thumbnailer works only if I load images from the file system, not from a resource file: Image { id: backgroundImage anchors.fill: parent sourceSize: Qt.size(parent.width, parent.height) source: "image://thumbnailer/qrc:///images/menu-background.jpg" } The default sdk template uses qrc as template.
