in the mobile systray applet i did:
PlasmaCore.Svg{
id: iconSvg
imagePath: "icons/"+String(IconName).split('-')[0]
Component.onCompleted: {
var hasSvg = iconSvg.hasElement(IconName)
normalIcon.visible = !hasSvg
svgItemIcon.visible = hasSvg
}
}
QtExtra.QIconItem {
id: normalIcon
anchors.fill: parent
icon: Icon
}
PlasmaCore.SvgItem {
id: svgItemIcon
anchors.fill: parent
svg: iconSvg
elementId: IconName
}
this way fallback can be done
(it could be made more sophisticated by using a Loader to load the actual icon
and the svg, so they won't all get loaded)
perhaps there could be interest in doing an importable component that does
that...

hm, no, unfortunately at the moment there isn't any way..
i should come up with something
I *think* tha writing a ToolTipData element (just a qobject) that has the
usual tooltip data as properties, it could then register its parent if it't a
qgraphicsitem to the plasma tooltip manager.
it would remain the unpretty thing of being possible to put two or more
tooltip datas as child of any given item and this kinda sucks
(or the tooltip data could be registered in the qscriptengine and
created/assigned in an imperative way)
opinions on it?
Cheers,
Marco Martin
