You say you are using the difference as a hack to document what
resources are 'outside'. By outside do you mean in an external
resource file (not embedded) or do you mean a resource file that is
not even on the local file system but over the network?<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>As a file that's not embedded. And I only said that using qrc:// makes it <i>clear</i> that the resource is embedded. <br>

I don't understand why Qt provides two different forms, but surely
it is not so you can document the difference between embedded and
external.</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Whatever the reason they provided, I only said using qrc:// makes it <i>clearer</i>.<br></div></div><br>-- <br>Shriramana Sharma ஶ்ரீரமணஶர்மா श्रीरमणशर्मा
