I want to display .jpg image in an Qt UI. I checked it online and found http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/widgets-imageviewer.html. I thought Graphics View will do the same, and also it has codec to display video. How to display images using Graphics View? I went through the libraries, but because I am a totally newbie in Qt, I can't find a clue to start with. Can you direct me to some resources/examples on how to load and display images in Qt?

Thanks.

You could attach the image (as a pixmap) to a label then add that to your layout...

...

QPixmap image("blah.jpg");

QLabel *imageLabel = new QLabel();
imageLabel->setPixmap(image);

mainLayout.addWidget(imageLabel);

...

Apologies, this is using Jambi (Qt for Java) so the syntax is different, but the theory is the same.
