So, it comes down to implementing the elements of Quick 1 on your own again for the elements you need, or something close to it. It is what I called "major work" in my first reply. And indeed: I guess doing this requires heavy use of private API. So far, QML and Quick are not all that friendly for C++-side extensions...This doesn't match my understanding of what they have done at all. I understand their article as having basically "visited" all items in the scene and having had to use private API to access the data so that they can implement printing outside of Qt Quick, but still using standard Qt Quick elements.But perhaps I misread it. What is your understanding after re-reading it?Ok, indeed, you're right. They didn't re-implement the actual items, they "just" reimplemented everything needed in those items to render them. Indeed: visiting each item and then figuring out how to render it completely from scratch. But they only did that for a handfull of items, and not taking into account all possibly relevant properties because they didn't use them as much.
Yep, correct. We pretty much only needed Text, Rectangle and Image for our usecase, and indeed didn't bother with many properties such as Image.TileMode.
Certainly not a very general solution, though it works nicely for us. Regards, Thomas -- Thomas McGuire | thomas.mcgu...@kdab.com | Senior Software Engineer KDAB (Deutschland) GmbH & Co KG, a KDAB Group company Tel: +49-30-521325470 KDAB - The Qt Experts
