I don't seem to have QContentFilter::category() in my SDK (4.2.2).
However, I came across QImageDocumentSelector, which is exactly what I
need. However, there are no images on the emulator device. How can I put
some on there so I get images in the selector? (there are none in the
built-in "Pictures" application either).
Once I have made changes to the image, what is the proper way to store
the edited image document? Should I overwrite the original, add some
kind of suffix, or is there some other approved method for allowing the
user to come up with a unique document name?
