Hi,
Starting from 6.7 we'll have separate corner radii for the corners of a
Rectangle. Nice, very welcome!
https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-6.7/qml-qtquick-rectangle.html
Unfortunately, the API looks a bit clunky and not ready for further
extension. Would it not be better to use a grouped property here instead
of having four different properties?
I can see two options. The simplest option is to have a `radii`
property, which is a grouped property containing the `topLeft`,
`topRight`, `bottomLeft` and `bottomRight` properties as a floating
point value as we have now. I think that would be cleaner than the
current state of things.
The second option is to actually allow for some more customization, and
have a `corners` property, where each corner again is named as in the
`radii` above, but would itself be a grouped property that could not
only contain `radius` but also `color` (and perhaps other properties in
the future*). Setting different colors for each of the corners would
allow for way more flexible gradients than what we have at the moment.
Cheers,
André
*) For instance, there could be properties that give even finer control
over the radius, so you can make an inverted rounded corner, or have
different radii for the x and y axis, or...
