Thanks, can you show me what "modelData" is in your example, or how the .cpp side is laid out? I am using an Instantiator (and had been before I posted, based on something I stumbled across while searching for this), but I'm still missing some connection I need to make it work. Alternatively, this is my current code: In main.cpp, I add three test items to the menu: QQmlEngine engine; QQmlComponent component(&engine, QUrl("qrc:/qml/dashboard.qml")); QObject* o = component.create(); settingsModel *model = o->findChild<settingsModel *>("model"); if (model) { qDebug() << "Adding items to model"; model->insertRow(0, new QStandardItem("one")); model->insertRow(1, new QStandardItem("two")); model->insertRow(2, new QStandardItem("three")); } else { qDebug() << "Invalid data model"; } My settingsModel.cpp: class settingsModel : public QStandardItemModel { Q_OBJECT public: explicit settingsModel(QObject *parent = 0); private: QStringList mPorts; }; And then in my dashboard.qml: SettingsModel { id: settingsModel objectName: "model" } Menu { id: settingsMenu Instantiator { model: settingsModel onObjectAdded: { settingsMenu.insertItem(index, object) console.log("QML: object added: " + object.text + ", index= " + index); } onObjectRemoved: { settingsMenu.removeItem(object) console.log("QML: object removed: " + object.text); } delegate: MenuItem { text: "test" } } } When I used your example verbatim, I got the error: qrc:///qml/dashboard.qml:93: ReferenceError: modelData is not defined and I didn't get any menu items in the menu. When I run what I've attached, I do get a menu that has three entries, all labeled "test". Which makes sense based on what I have in there. So at least it seems like the calls to the model's insertRow() are triggering the Qml side to add items to the menu, but I just don't know what I'm supposed to change the text line below delegate: MenuItem { text: "test" } To get the menu to pick up the model item's string for that item?
