Following your advice, I changed Array.qml to the following: (most notably:
added the repeater.model property alias)
Entity {
id: root
property alias model: repeater.model
property int length: 1
property Transform transform: Transform {}
property Component itemDelegate
readonly property int firstIndex: 0
property Component firstItemDelegate
readonly property int lastIndex: length - 1
property Component lastItemDelegate
NodeInstantiator {
id: repeater
model: root.length
delegate: Entity {
id: repeatedEntity
property int index: model.index
components: [
Transform {
matrix: {
var m = Qt.matrix4x4(1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1)
for(var i = 0; i < repeatedEntity.index; i++)
m = m.times(root.transform.matrix)
return m
}
}
]
NodeInstantiator {
delegate: repeatedEntity.index == root.firstIndex &&
firstItemDelegate
? firstItemDelegate
: repeatedEntity.index == root.lastIndex
&& lastItemDelegate
? lastItemDelegate
: itemDelegate
}
}
}
}
However, model.index doesn’t work in the delegate, e.g.:
Array {
id: root
length: 10
transform.scale: 0.95
transform.translation.y: 0.5
itemDelegate: Entity {
components: [
CuboidMesh {
xExtent: 1.0; yExtent: 1.0; zExtent: 1.0;
},
PhongMaterial {
diffuse: Qt.rgba(model.index / 10, 0.5, 0.5, 1.0)
shininess: 75
}
]
}
}
(all items have the same Qt.rgba(1.0, 0.5, 0.5, 1) color)
Also changing the model reference (in PhongMaterial) to root.model.index
gives the same result.

Are you sure it's non-existing? The context in which that delegate is
going to be created should have "index" injected into it.
Needless to say, all of this is deprecated in 5.15 (in favour of
required properties), and even before you were never supposed to use
unqualified properties like those. You were supposed to
1) always prefix them with model.
2) expose properties on the root of the delegate, use them internally as
needed, and bind them when using the delegate in a view.
