Thank you for the generous insights gents. While I'm still learning from ground up these simplest things with Qt delegate was the thing here to get some flesh on the bones (as in: getting something to show up on the emulator screen). The first code I used did work so I merely did expand on top of that with another "code training".
This time the new code has two XmlRole elements: one for the "name" of products and the other for the "price" of the products. If I pass these two through the delegate component the data seems to overlap on the emulator screen. What is the correct way through the means of coding to change the relative position of those two (or even multiple) elements?
