Hi Eike,

just tried adding ressources from another project as you described - worked.
thx.
never would have found this alone ;-)
(and from J-P Nurmi in the meantime I learned that I have to add
resource files in .pro to OTHER_FILES+= to get a better tree view)

for copying src files now I'll use this workflow:
-- source project... show in finder, mark .cpp / .hpp, copy
-- target project... show in finder, paste

then I have to manually add to .pro the names of copied cpp under SOURCES+=
correct ?

thx

ekke
