## Using custom variable
In QssStylesheetEditor, users can define and use custom variables in QSS.
Using following statement to define new variable:
~~~js
/*example of custom variable definition*/
$background = #fff; /* define var with name "background" */
$text = red; /* define var with name "text" */
~~~
A variable definition end with a ";".
Reference defined variable as following:
~~~css
/* example of custom variable reference */
QWidget
{
color: $text; /* reference variable text*/
background-color: $background; /* reference variable background*/
}
~~~
Users can export the code to qss file without vars by the "File>Export" menu.
**Variable Color pick dialog**
When a variable is defined in QssStylesheetEditor, the variable will be automatically displayed in the color pannel. You can click the color button to select the variable color through the color pick-up box.
> If an undefined variable is referenced, it will be automatically recognized and displayed in the color panel too.
## Image reference path
When images are use in the qss code, if the url is relative, QssStylesheetEditor will find the image file in the folder where the qss code file is.
~~~css
background-image: url("img/close.png");
/* the img folder must be in the same directory of the qss code file*/
~~~
## image in resource file
If your image files is converted to resource file by pyrcc5(pyrcc5 xxx.qrc -o xxxresource.py).
You can reference images in the resource file as following:
~~~css
background-image: url(":/img/close.png");
~~~
QssStylesheetEditor will search the resource file filename.py(filename must be same of qss file) in the directory of the currently opened qss stylesheet code file and loads it automatically.
