I actually question the usefulness of Qt Quick for a file browser all together. I do not think you'd want to create a complex interface like that with Qt Quick as you'd basically end up implementing half the stuff in C++ anyway. It absolutely and totally makes sense for multimedia apps though, usually their interface is straight forward and needs the additional awesomeness. Just some random thoughts :) regards, Harald
