That’s not necessary on iOS AFAIK. Widget-based dialogs are an option on desktop systems. The priority is: native dialog if possible (and on iOS, if you are choosing a picture, we treat the photo picker as a native dialog); if not, then use a widget dialog if possible (and if it’s not a QApplication, it’s not possible); if not, then fall back to a plain QML implementation (DefaultFileDialog.qml). (Disclaimer: I haven’t tested that on iOS for quite some time. I hope it still works. ;-) > want to avoid this because my mobile apps are using QtQuickControls2 only The work of porting over to Controls 2 dialogs is not done yet. >>> it seems that there's no way to construct an URL in QML to access files >>> from assets-library >>> so probably the best way is to write an ImageProvider to access these >>> Images from QML >>> >> After you choose the photo, you will get a URL which works AFAIK. > in forum I read that this URL works from C++ but not from QML Not sure about that… I guess I need to test it again. I thought it was possible to set an Image.source property to that URL, for example, but we don’t have much file-reading support in QML otherwise. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
