Qt Quick Examples - Views
This is a collection of QML model-view examples.

Views is a collection of small QML examples relating to model and view functionality. They demonstrate how to show data from a model using the Qt Quick view types. For more information, visit the Models and Views in Qt Quick page.
Running the Example
To run the example from Qt Creator, open the Welcome mode and select the example from Examples. For more information, visit Building and Running an Example.
Using GridView and PathView
GridView and PathView demonstrate usage of these types to display views.
      GridView {
          anchors.fill: parent
          cellWidth: 100; cellHeight: 100
          focus: true
          model: appModel
          highlight: Rectangle { width: 80; height: 80; color: "lightsteelblue" }
          delegate: Item {
              width: 100; height: 100
              Image {
                  id: myIcon
                  y: 20; anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
                  source: icon
              }
              Text {
                  anchors { top: myIcon.bottom; horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter }
                  text: name
              }
              MouseArea {
                  anchors.fill: parent
                  onClicked: parent.GridView.view.currentIndex = index
              }
          }
      }
Using Dynamic List
Dynamic List demonstrates animation of runtime additions and removals to a ListView.
The ListView.onAdd signal handler runs an animation when new items are added to the view, and the ListView.onRemove another when they are removed.
          Item {
              ListView.onAdd: SequentialAnimation {
                  PropertyAction { target: delegateItem; property: "height"; value: 0 }
                  NumberAnimation { target: delegateItem; property: "height"; to: 80; duration: 250; easing.type: Easing.InOutQuad }
              }
              ListView.onRemove: SequentialAnimation {
                  PropertyAction { target: delegateItem; property: "ListView.delayRemove"; value: true }
                  NumberAnimation { target: delegateItem; property: "height"; to: 0; duration: 250; easing.type: Easing.InOutQuad }
                  // Make sure delayRemove is set back to false so that the item can be destroyed
                  PropertyAction { target: delegateItem; property: "ListView.delayRemove"; value: false }
              }
          }
Expanding Delegates
Expanding Delegates demonstrates delegates that expand when activated.
It has a complex delegate the size and appearance of which can change, displacing other items in the view.
          Item {
              id: recipe
              // Create a property to contain the visibility of the details.
              // We can bind multiple element's opacity to this one property,
              // rather than having a "PropertyChanges" line for each element we
              // want to fade.
              property real detailsOpacity : 0
              MouseArea {
                  anchors.fill: parent
                  onClicked: recipe.state = 'Details';
              }
              // Lay out the page: picture, title and ingredients at the top, and method at the
              // bottom.  Note that elements that should not be visible in the list
              // mode have their opacity set to recipe.detailsOpacity.
              Row {
                  id: topLayout
                  x: 10; y: 10; height: recipeImage.height; width: parent.width
                  spacing: 10
                  Image {
                      id: recipeImage
                      width: 50; height: 50
                      source: picture
                  }
              Item {
                  id: details
                  x: 10; width: parent.width - 20
                  anchors { top: topLayout.bottom; topMargin: 10; bottom: parent.bottom; bottomMargin: 10 }
                  opacity: recipe.detailsOpacity
              }
              // A button to close the detailed view, i.e. set the state back to default ('').
              TextButton {
                  y: 10
                  anchors { right: background.right; rightMargin: 10 }
                  opacity: recipe.detailsOpacity
                  text: "Close"
                  onClicked: recipe.state = '';
              }
              states: State {
                  name: "Details"
                  PropertyChanges { target: background; color: "white" }
                  PropertyChanges { target: recipeImage; width: 130; height: 130 } // Make picture bigger
                  PropertyChanges { target: recipe; detailsOpacity: 1; x: 0 } // Make details visible
                  PropertyChanges { target: recipe; height: listView.height } // Fill the entire list area with the detailed view
                  // Move the list so that this item is at the top.
                  PropertyChanges { target: recipe.ListView.view; explicit: true; contentY: recipe.y }
                  // Disallow flicking while we're in detailed view
                  PropertyChanges { target: recipe.ListView.view; interactive: false }
              }
              transitions: Transition {
                  // Make the state changes smooth
                  ParallelAnimation {
                      ColorAnimation { property: "color"; duration: 500 }
                      NumberAnimation { duration: 300; properties: "detailsOpacity,x,contentY,height,width" }
                  }
              }
          }
Using Highlight
Highlight demonstrates adding a custom highlight to a ListView.
      // Define a highlight with customized movement between items.
      Component {
          id: highlightBar
          Rectangle {
              width: 200; height: 50
              color: "#FFFF88"
              y: listView.currentItem.y;
              Behavior on y { SpringAnimation { spring: 2; damping: 0.1 } }
          }
      }
      ListView {
          id: listView
          width: 200; height: parent.height
          x: 30
          model: PetsModel {}
          delegate: petDelegate
          focus: true
          // Set the highlight delegate. Note we must also set highlightFollowsCurrentItem
          // to false so the highlight delegate can control how the highlight is moved.
          highlight: highlightBar
          highlightFollowsCurrentItem: false
      }
Using Highlight Ranges
Highlight Ranges shows the three different highlight range modes of ListView.
Rectangle { id: root property int current: 0 property bool increasing: true // Example index automation for convenience, disabled on click or tap SequentialAnimation { id: anim loops: -1 running: true ScriptAction { script: if (increasing) { current++; if (current >= aModel.count -1) { current = aModel.count - 1; increasing = !increasing; } } else { current--; if (current <= 0) { current = 0; increasing = !increasing; } } } PauseAnimation { duration: 500 } } ListView { id: list1 height: 50; width: parent.width model: PetsModel {id: aModel} delegate: petDelegate orientation: ListView.Horizontal highlight: Rectangle { color: "lightsteelblue" } currentIndex: root.current onCurrentIndexChanged: root.current = currentIndex focus: true } ListView { id: list2 y: 160 height: 50; width: parent.width model: PetsModel {} delegate: petDelegate orientation: ListView.Horizontal highlight: Rectangle { color: "yellow" } currentIndex: root.current preferredHighlightBegin: 80; preferredHighlightEnd: 220 highlightRangeMode: ListView.ApplyRange } ListView { id: list3 y: 320 height: 50; width: parent.width model: PetsModel {} delegate: petDelegate orientation: ListView.Horizontal highlight: Rectangle { color: "yellow" } currentIndex: root.current onCurrentIndexChanged: root.current = currentIndex preferredHighlightBegin: 125; preferredHighlightEnd: 125 highlightRangeMode: ListView.StrictlyEnforceRange } }
Using Sections
Sections demonstrates the various section headers and footers available to ListView.
      // The delegate for each section header
      Component {
          id: sectionHeading
          Rectangle {
              width: container.width
              height: childrenRect.height
              color: "lightsteelblue"
              Text {
                  text: section
                  font.bold: true
                  font.pixelSize: 20
              }
          }
      }
      ListView {
          id: view
          anchors.top: parent.top
          anchors.bottom: buttonBar.top
          width: parent.width
          model: animalsModel
          delegate: Text { text: name; font.pixelSize: 18 }
          section.property: "size"
          section.criteria: ViewSection.FullString
          section.delegate: sectionHeading
      }
Using Packages
Packages use the Package type to transition delegates between two views.
It has a Package object which defines delegate items for each view and an item that can be transferred between delegates.
Package { Text { id: listDelegate; width: parent.width; height: 25; text: 'Empty'; Package.name: 'list' } Text { id: gridDelegate; width: parent.width / 2; height: 50; text: 'Empty'; Package.name: 'grid' } Rectangle { id: wrapper width: parent.width; height: 25 color: 'lightsteelblue' Text { text: display; anchors.centerIn: parent } state: root.upTo > index ? 'inGrid' : 'inList' states: [ State { name: 'inList' ParentChange { target: wrapper; parent: listDelegate } }, State { name: 'inGrid' ParentChange { target: wrapper; parent: gridDelegate x: 0; y: 0; width: gridDelegate.width; height: gridDelegate.height } } ] transitions: [ Transition { ParentAnimation { NumberAnimation { properties: 'x,y,width,height'; duration: 300 } } } ] } }
A DelegateModel allows the individual views to access their specific items from the shared package delegate.
DelegateModel { id: visualModel delegate: Delegate {} model: myModel } ListView { id: lv height: parent.height/2 width: parent.width model: visualModel.parts.list } GridView { y: parent.height/2 height: parent.height/2 width: parent.width cellWidth: width / 2 cellHeight: 50 model: visualModel.parts.grid }
Using ObjectModel
ObjectModel uses an ObjectModel for the model instead of a ListModel.
      ObjectModel {
          id: itemModel
          Rectangle {
              width: view.width; height: view.height
              color: "#FFFEF0"
              Text { text: "Page 1"; font.bold: true; anchors.centerIn: parent }
              Component.onDestruction: if (printDestruction) print("destroyed 1")
          }
          Rectangle {
              width: view.width; height: view.height
              color: "#F0FFF7"
              Text { text: "Page 2"; font.bold: true; anchors.centerIn: parent }
              Component.onDestruction: if (printDestruction) print("destroyed 2")
          }
          Rectangle {
              width: view.width; height: view.height
              color: "#F4F0FF"
              Text { text: "Page 3"; font.bold: true; anchors.centerIn: parent }
              Component.onDestruction: if (printDestruction) print("destroyed 3")
          }
      }
      ListView {
          id: view
          anchors { fill: parent; bottomMargin: 30 }
          model: itemModel
          preferredHighlightBegin: 0; preferredHighlightEnd: 0
          highlightRangeMode: ListView.StrictlyEnforceRange
          orientation: ListView.Horizontal
          snapMode: ListView.SnapOneItem; flickDeceleration: 2000
          cacheBuffer: 200
      }
Using Display Margins
Display Margins uses delegates to display items and implements a simple header and footer components.
