QCustomQLabel
A QLabel that can show an SVG ICON recoloured from QSS.
The icon FILE is set the normal way (a QLabel pixmap — in the .ui or from
QSS with the path variable), and the label TINTS that pixmap to iconColor,
so a decorative label icon tracks ANY token (a brand-orange logo, a muted
glyph) with no Python and recolours on a theme switch:
QCustomQLabel#logoIcon { qproperty-pixmap: url($PATH_RESOURCES+'feather/activity.svg'); qproperty-iconColor: $logo; } QCustomQLabel#searchIcon { qproperty-pixmap: url($PATH_RESOURCES+'feather/search.svg'); qproperty-iconColor: $muted; }
(Buttons use qproperty-icon; a QLabel has no icon property, so the file goes
through qproperty-pixmap.) It renders at iconSize px, or at the widget
size when iconSize is 0 (default). Leave iconColor unset and the pixmap shows
as-is (an ordinary QLabel).
