    Hi!
    I'm doing a function in which a program selects a picture from a file using a variable given by a String for example

    QString name = "carlos" + ".png";
    // (the first part of the string is given by a QLineEdit introduced by the user)
    QFile File("/home/pics/name")
    

    Thanks in advance.

      what is the question?

      QString name = "carlos" + ".png";
      QFile File("/home/pics/" + name");

      or

      QFile File( qApp->applicationDirPath() +"/"+ name");
      to load it from folder where .exe is.
      This is good for deployment time.

        @mrjj said:

        "/home/pics/" + name"

        Indeed, it worked. Thank you :)
