OpenGL Texture Files

When the default OpenGL 场景图形 backend is in use, images can also be supplied in compressed texture files. The content must be a simple RGB(A) format 2D texture. Supported compression schemes are only limited by the underlying OpenGL driver and GPU. The following container file formats are supported:

• PKM (since Qt 5.10)
• KTX (since Qt 5.11)
• ASTC (since Qt 5.13)

注意： Semi-transparent original images require alpha pre-multiplication prior to texture compression in order to be correctly displayed in Qt Quick. This can be done with the following ImageMagick command line:

convert foo.png \( +clone -alpha Extract \) -channel RGB -compose Multiply -composite foo_pm.png
					
				

Automatic Detection of File Extension

若 source URL indicates a non-existing local file or resource, the Image element attempts to auto-detect the file extension. If an existing file can be found by appending any of the supported image file extensions to the source URL, then that file will be loaded.

If the OpenGL 场景图形 backend is in use, the file search the attempts the OpenGL texture file extensions first. If the search is unsuccessful, it attempts to search with the file extensions for the conventional image file types 。例如：

// Assuming the "pics" directory contains the following files:
//   dog.jpg
//   cat.png
//   cat.pkm
Image {
    source: "pics/cat.png"     // loads cat.png
}
Image {
    source: "pics/dog"         // loads dog.jpg
}
Image {
    source: "pics/cat"         // normally loads cat.pkm, but if no OpenGL, loads cat.png instead.
}
				

This functionality facilitates deploying different image asset file types on different target platforms. This can be useful in order to tune application performance and adapt to different graphics hardware.

This functionality was introduced in Qt 5.11.

性能

By default, locally available images are loaded immediately, and the user interface is blocked until loading is complete. If a large image is to be loaded, it may be preferable to load the image in a low priority thread, by enabling the asynchronous 特性。

If the image is obtained from a network rather than a local resource, it is automatically loaded asynchronously, and the progress and status properties are updated as appropriate.

Images are cached and shared internally, so if several Image items have the same source , only one copy of the image will be loaded.

注意 : Images are often the greatest user of memory in QML user interfaces. It is recommended that images which do not form part of the user interface have their size bounded via the sourceSize property. This is especially important for content that is loaded from external sources or provided by the user.

特性文档编制

currentFrame : int

frameCount : int

currentFrame is the frame that is currently visible. The default is 0 . You can set it to a number between 0 and frameCount - 1 to display a different frame, if the image contains multiple frames.

frameCount is the number of frames in the image. Most images have only one frame.

该 QML 特性在 Qt 5.14 引入。

horizontalAlignment : enumeration

verticalAlignment : enumeration

Sets the horizontal and vertical alignment of the image. By default, the image is center aligned.

The valid values for horizontalAlignment are Image.AlignLeft , Image.AlignRight and Image.AlignHCenter . The valid values for verticalAlignment are Image.AlignTop , Image.AlignBottom and Image.AlignVCenter .

[read-only] paintedHeight : real

[read-only] paintedWidth : real

These properties hold the size of the image that is actually painted. In most cases it is the same as width and height , but when using an Image.PreserveAspectFit 或 Image.PreserveAspectCrop paintedWidth or paintedHeight can be smaller or larger than width and height of the Image item.

asynchronous : bool

Specifies that images on the local filesystem should be loaded asynchronously in a separate thread. The default value is false, causing the user interface thread to block while the image is loaded. Setting asynchronous to true is useful where maintaining a responsive user interface is more desirable than having images immediately visible.

Note that this property is only valid for images read from the local filesystem. Images loaded via a network resource (e.g. HTTP) are always loaded asynchronously.

autoTransform : bool

This property holds whether the image should automatically apply image transformation metadata such as EXIF orientation.

默认情况下，此特性被设为 false。

该特性在 Qt 5.5 引入。

cache : bool

Specifies whether the image should be cached. The default value is true. Setting cache to false is useful when dealing with large images, to make sure that they aren't cached at the expense of small 'ui element' images.

fillMode : enumeration

Set this property to define what happens when the source image has a different size than the item.

• Image.Stretch - the image is scaled to fit
• Image.PreserveAspectFit - the image is scaled uniformly to fit without cropping
• Image.PreserveAspectCrop - the image is scaled uniformly to fill, cropping if necessary
• Image.Tile - the image is duplicated horizontally and vertically
• Image.TileVertically - the image is stretched horizontally and tiled vertically
• Image.TileHorizontally - the image is stretched vertically and tiled horizontally
• Image.Pad - the image is not transformed

	Stretch (default) Image { width: 130; height: 100 source: "qtlogo.png" }
	PreserveAspectFit Image { width: 130; height: 100 fillMode: Image.PreserveAspectFit source: "qtlogo.png" }
	PreserveAspectCrop Image { width: 130; height: 100 fillMode: Image.PreserveAspectCrop source: "qtlogo.png" clip: true }
	Tile Image { width: 120; height: 120 fillMode: Image.Tile horizontalAlignment: Image.AlignLeft verticalAlignment: Image.AlignTop source: "qtlogo.png" }
	TileVertically Image { width: 120; height: 120 fillMode: Image.TileVertically verticalAlignment: Image.AlignTop source: "qtlogo.png" }
	TileHorizontally Image { width: 120; height: 120 fillMode: Image.TileHorizontally verticalAlignment: Image.AlignLeft source: "qtlogo.png" }

注意， clip is false by default which means that the item might paint outside its bounding rectangle even if the fillMode is set to PreserveAspectCrop .

mipmap : bool

This property holds whether the image uses mipmap filtering when scaled or transformed.

Mipmap filtering gives better visual quality when scaling down compared to smooth, but it may come at a performance cost (both when initializing the image and during rendering).

默认情况下，此特性被设为 false。

该特性在 Qt 5.3 引入。

另请参阅 smooth .

mirror : bool

This property holds whether the image should be horizontally inverted (effectively displaying a mirrored image).

默认值为 false。

[read-only] progress : real

This property holds the progress of image loading, from 0.0 (nothing loaded) to 1.0 (finished).

另请参阅 status .

smooth : bool

This property holds whether the image is smoothly filtered when scaled or transformed. Smooth filtering gives better visual quality, but it may be slower on some hardware. If the image is displayed at its natural size, this property has no visual or performance effect.

默认情况下，此特性被设为 true。

source : url

Image can handle any image format supported by Qt, loaded from any URL scheme supported by Qt.

The URL may be absolute, or relative to the URL of the component.

sourceClipRect : rect

This property, if set, holds the rectangular region of the source image to be loaded.

The sourceClipRect works together with the sourceSize property to conserve system resources when only a portion of an image needs to be loaded.

Rectangle {
    width: ...
    height: ...
    Image {
       anchors.fill: parent
       source: "reallyBigImage.svg"
       sourceSize.width: 1024
       sourceSize.height: 1024
       sourceClipRect: Qt.rect(100, 100, 512, 512)
    }
}
				

In the above example, we conceptually scale the SVG graphic to 1024x1024 first, and then cut out a region of interest that is 512x512 pixels from a location 100 pixels from the top and left edges. Thus sourceSize determines the scale, but the actual output image is 512x512 pixels.

Some image formats are able to conserve CPU time by rendering only the specified region. Others will need to load the entire image first and then clip it to the specified region.

This property can be cleared to reload the entire image by setting sourceClipRect to undefined .

注意： Changing this property dynamically causes the image source to be reloaded, potentially even from the network, if it is not in the disk cache.

注意： Sub-pixel clipping is not supported: the given rectangle will be passed to QImageReader::setScaledClipRect() .

该特性在 Qt 5.15 引入。

sourceSize : size

This property holds the scaled width and height of the full-frame image.

不像 width and height properties, which scale the painting of the image, this property sets the maximum number of pixels stored for the loaded image so that large images do not use more memory than necessary. For example, this ensures the image in memory is no larger than 1024x1024 pixels, regardless of the Image's width and height 值：

Rectangle {
    width: ...
    height: ...
    Image {
       anchors.fill: parent
       source: "reallyBigImage.jpg"
       sourceSize.width: 1024
       sourceSize.height: 1024
    }
}
				

If the image's actual size is larger than the sourceSize, the image is scaled down. If only one dimension of the size is set to greater than 0, the other dimension is set in proportion to preserve the source image's aspect ratio. (The fillMode is independent of this.)

If both the sourceSize.width and sourceSize.height are set, the image will be scaled down to fit within the specified size (unless PreserveAspectCrop or PreserveAspectFit are used, then it will be scaled to match the optimal size for cropping/fitting), maintaining the image's aspect ratio. The actual size of the image after scaling is available via Item::implicitWidth and Item::implicitHeight .

If the source is an intrinsically scalable image (eg. SVG), this property determines the size of the loaded image regardless of intrinsic size. Avoid changing this property dynamically; rendering an SVG is slow compared to an image.

If the source is a non-scalable image (eg. JPEG), the loaded image will be no greater than this property specifies. For some formats (currently only JPEG), the whole image will never actually be loaded into memory.

若 sourceClipRect property is also set, sourceSize determines the scale, but it will be clipped to the size of the clip rectangle.

sourceSize can be cleared to the natural size of the image by setting sourceSize to undefined .

注意： Changing this property dynamically causes the image source to be reloaded, potentially even from the network, if it is not in the disk cache.

[read-only] status : enumeration

This property holds the status of image loading. It can be one of:

• Image.Null - no image has been set
• Image.Ready - the image has been loaded
• Image.Loading - the image is currently being loaded
• Image.Error - an error occurred while loading the image

Use this status to provide an update or respond to the status change in some way. For example, you could:

• Trigger a state change:

  State { name: 'loaded'; when: image.status == Image.Ready }
  						

• Implement an onStatusChanged signal handler:

  Image {
  
  id
  
  :
  
  image
  
  
  onStatusChanged
  
  :
  
  if
  
   (
  
  image
  
  .
  
  status
  
  
  ==
  
  
  图像
  
  .
  
  Ready
  
  )
  
  console
  
  .
  
  log
  
  (
  
  'Loaded'
  
  )
  }
  						

• Bind to the status value:

  Text { text: image.status == Image.Ready ? 'Loaded' : 'Not loaded' }
