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 {
             required property string icon
             required property string name
             required property int index
             width: 100; height: 100
             Image {
                 id: myIcon
                 y: 20; anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
                 source: parent.icon
             }
             Text {
                 anchors { top: myIcon.bottom; horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter }
                 text: parent.name
             }
             MouseArea {
                 anchors.fill: parent
                 onClicked: parent.GridView.view.currentIndex = parent.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 {
             SequentialAnimation {
                 id: addAnimation
                 PropertyAction { target: delegateItem; property: "height"; value: 0 }
                 NumberAnimation { target: delegateItem; property: "height"; to: 80; duration: 250; easing.type: Easing.InOutQuad }
             }
             ListView.onAdd: addAnimation.start()
             SequentialAnimation {
                 id: removeAnimation
                 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 }
             }
             ListView.onRemove: removeAnimation.start()
         }
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
             required property string title
             required property string picture
             required property string ingredients
             required property string method
             // 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: recipe.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 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 (root.increasing) { root.current++; if (root.current >= aModel.count -1) { root.current = aModel.count - 1; root.increasing = !root.increasing; } } else { root.current--; if (root.current <= 0) { root.current = 0; root.increasing = !root.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"
             required property string section
             Text {
                 text: parent.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 {
             required property string name
             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 { id: delegate required property int upTo required property int index required property string display 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: delegate.display; anchors.centerIn: parent } state: delegate.upTo > delegate.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 { upTo: root.upTo } 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 (root.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 (root.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 (root.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.
