Qt Creator give the possibility to attach some resource to the project.
I created in the project directory a folder called: Images. inside i have the file splash1.jpg

I created then the Resources file and attached the file as shown in the following figure:
enter image description here

Which is now the correct way to access from code such a file?
I tryed

QPixmap pixmap( "Images/splash1.jpg" );
QPixmap pixmap( "./Images/splash1.jpg" );

but none of them worked.

if i put just ./Images/splash1.jpg work at least if i compile by hand with qmake and make because has the correct path at runtime but no way to make it work within qt creator

Any idea??

Cheers,

    Qt5 resources explains all you need. You have to put the colon before the path in the source tree. You also have placed a prefix, so :/Images/Images/splash1.jpg. This will give you a path.
    If you need a URL, then use the qrc: scheme.
