[solved] QIcon using SVG file and quasar build

[mstarr]

Hi,
I was having trouble getting quasar build to work properly when using QIcon with the name property, like this:

<q-icon name="img:assets/checkbook.svg"/>

The problem is that the file checkbook.svg was not being copied to the dist folder.

I finally solved it by putting my SVG file in the statics folder instead of assets, but I don’t really understand why that works. Is this normal behavior?

Thanks!

@mstarr - Yes. It’s normal behavior. All assets not needing some sort of processing need to go into the statics folder.

@s-molinari ok, thanks for answering. I missed that on the documentation somehow.

Cheers!
