[Qt-interest] Set Background From Image File

[Szalata, Zenon M.]

I have followed an example in:

http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Load,_Resize_image_and_set_background_image_in_Qt_application/widget
and I got my test program to work with either main window or a scroll area in the main window.  I could not get it to work with either QFrame or QWidget.  I have created a main window and the a child widget (either QScrollArea, QFrame, or QWidget) in QT designer.  Then I have coded my mainwindow.cpp as in the example.
I thought that this procedure should have worked with the frame widget, but it did not.  Why?

Next I wanted to do this in the style sheet file.   So I created myStyle.qss  where I have a number of rules including this one:
QScrollArea{
    background-image: url(:/nlctaSketch.png);
}

All other rules work but the one for the scroll area does not.  Am I doing it wrong?
I have commented out the code in my mainwindow.cpp file for setting the background.

Thanks for any hints,
Zen
