states.</p>
<p>A QIcon can generate smaller, larger, active, and disabled
pixmaps from the set of pixmaps it is given. Such pixmaps are used
by Qt widgets to show an icon representing a particular action.</p>
<p>The simplest use of QIcon is to create one from a <a href="qpixmap.html">QPixmap</a> file or resource, and then use it,
allowing Qt to work out all the required icon styles and sizes. For
example:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type"><a href="qtoolbutton.html">QToolButton</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>button <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="keyword">new</span> <span class="type"><a href="qtoolbutton.html">QToolButton</a></span>;
button<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>setIcon(<span class="type">QIcon</span>(<span class="string">"open.xpm"</span>));
</pre>
<p>To undo a QIcon, simply set a null icon in its place:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
button<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>setIcon(<span class="type">QIcon</span>());
</pre>
<p>Use the <a href="qimagereader.html#supportedImageFormats">QImageReader.supportedImageFormats</a>()
and <a href="qimagewriter.html#supportedImageFormats">QImageWriter.supportedImageFormats</a>()
functions to retrieve a complete list of the supported file
formats.</p>
<p>When you retrieve a pixmap using pixmap(<a href="qsize.html">QSize</a>, Mode, State), and no pixmap for this given
size, mode and state has been added with <a href="qicon.html#addFile">addFile</a>() or <a href="qicon.html#addPixmap">addPixmap</a>(), then QIcon will generate
one on the fly. This pixmap generation happens in a <a href="qiconenginev2.html">QIconEngineV2</a>. The default engine scales
pixmaps down if required, but never up, and it uses the current
style to calculate a disabled appearance. By using custom icon
engines, you can customize every aspect of generated icons. With
<a href="qiconenginepluginv2.html">QIconEnginePluginV2</a> it is
possible to register different icon engines for different file
suffixes, making it possible for third parties to provide
additional icon engines to those included with Qt.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> Since Qt 4.2, an icon engine that supports SVG is
included.</p>
<a id="making-classes-that-use-qicon" name="making-classes-that-use-qicon" />
<h3>Making Classes that Use QIcon</h3>
<p>If you write your own widgets that have an option to set a small
pixmap, consider allowing a QIcon to be set for that pixmap. The Qt
class <a href="qtoolbutton.html">QToolButton</a> is an example of
such a widget.</p>
<p>Provide a method to set a QIcon, and when you draw the icon,
choose whichever pixmap is appropriate for the current state of
your widget. For example:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type">void</span> MyWidget<span class="operator">.</span>drawIcon(<span class="type"><a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>painter<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qpoint.html">QPoint</a></span> pos)
{
<span class="type"><a href="qpixmap.html">QPixmap</a></span> pixmap <span class="operator">=</span> icon<span class="operator">.</span>pixmap(<span class="type"><a href="qsize.html">QSize</a></span>(<span class="number">22</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="number">22</span>)<span class="operator">,</span>
isEnabled() <span class="operator">?</span> <span class="type">QIcon</span><span class="operator">.</span>Normal
: <span class="type">QIcon</span><span class="operator">.</span>Disabled<span class="operator">,</span>
isChecked() <span class="operator">?</span> <span class="type">QIcon</span><span class="operator">.</span>On
: <span class="type">QIcon</span><span class="operator">.</span>Off);
painter<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>drawPixmap(pos<span class="operator">,</span> pixmap);
}
</pre>
<p>You might also make use of the <tt>Active</tt> mode, perhaps
making your widget <tt>Active</tt> when the mouse is over the
widget (see <a href="qwidget.html#enterEvent">QWidget.enterEvent</a>()), while the
mouse is pressed pending the release that will activate the
function, or when it is the currently selected item. If the widget
can be toggled, the "On" mode might be used to draw a different
icon.</p>

<hr /><h2>Type Documentation</h2><h3 class="fn"><a name="Mode-enum" />QIcon.Mode</h3><p>This enum type describes the mode for which a pixmap is intended
to be used. The currently defined modes are:</p>
<table class="valuelist">

<th class="tblval">Value</th>

</pre>
<p>Or if you want to provide a guaranteed fallback for platforms
that do not support theme icons, you can use the second
argument:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type"><a href="qicon.html">QIcon</a></span> undoicon <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="type"><a href="qicon.html">QIcon</a></span><span class="operator">.</span>fromTheme(<span class="string">"edit-undo"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qicon.html">QIcon</a></span>(<span class="string">":/undo.png"</span>));
</pre>
<p><b>Note:</b> By default, only X11 will support themed icons. In
order to use themed icons on Mac and Windows, you will have to
bundle a compliant theme in one of your <a href="qicon.html#themeSearchPaths">themeSearchPaths</a>() and set the
