I am having trouble displaying a simple image into my application. Here's the main.py: 

import sys
from PyQt5.QtQml import QQmlApplicationEngine
from PyQt5.QtGui import QGuiApplication
from PyQt5.QtCore import QObject, QUrl


if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.argv += ['--style', 'material']
    app = QGuiApplication(sys.argv)
    engine = QQmlApplicationEngine('basic.qml')
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

And the basic.qml:

import QtQuick 2.0
import QtQuick.Controls 2.1
import QtQuick.Controls.Material 2.1

ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true
    width: 200
    height: 400
    title: qsTr("Hello World")
    Material.theme: Material.Light
    Material.accent: Material.Orange
    Column {
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        Button {
            width: 200; height:50;
            font.capitalization: Font.MixedCase
            text: qsTr("Button Name")
            objectName: "button_obj_name"
            highlighted: true
            Material.background: Material.Orange

        }
        Image{
                width: 100; height: 100
                fillMode: Image.PreserveAspectFit
                source: "logo_name.jpg"
            }
    }
}

In the application window it seems that space is allocated but nothing is displaying. [logo_name.jpg is located in the same folder where basic.qml and main.py are in ]

  • Can you try adding `sourceSize.width: 100; sourceSize.height: 100;` in the image? `Image` has this weird `sourceSize` property... – Ross Rogers Feb 05 '18 at 16:28
  • to me it works correctly, you could explain how you execute your application. – eyllanesc Feb 05 '18 at 16:42

    As a sanity check can you please post the image you're trying to display & image/listing of folder contents? – Jason R. Mick Feb 05 '18 at 21:31
  • @eyllanesc I'm running it directly from IDLE (F5) and I tried creating an executable with cx_freeze and the image is still not showing. – HaR Feb 06 '18 at 10:38

    @Jason R. Mick I think you might be right. I've tried with a random logo from the internet and it displayed correctly. http://brandmark.io/logo-rank/random/pepsi.png – HaR Feb 06 '18 at 10:46

Your code looks right. I was having a similar problem on my windows box. Code that worked on the raspberry did not work on the windows machine. Removing and reinstalling PyQt5 go it working again.

pip3 uninstall pyqt5

It had something to do with the image I was trying to display(as @Jason R. Mick mentioned),I believe that the image I was trying to use was converted by changing it's extension name.

You should better check current path. You can print out the current path with sys.argv[0]. After getting the path, copy your image file to that path. Then, run again.

I also think this is not a problem of source code, but development environment.
