Hi all, I want to dynamically create QML objects in my application to serve as visual effects. They're pretty basic QML components that I just want to appear, animate, and then be destroyed. I'm not sure about the best way to do this. My program is hybrid C++/QML, so I have a QDeclarativeView which is the root context and engine for all the QML of my program. I create the view and then use setSource to set the QML that makes up my main UI. Now later as the program is running, I want to start dynamically creating some objects. This is what I tried just as a proof of concept:
Effect.qml: import Qt 4.6 Rectangle { id: rect width: 100 height: 20 color: "red" x: 200 NumberAnimation on y { from: 300; to: 100; duration: 1000 } Component.onCompleted: rect.destroy(1000) } and then in a slot in my C++: QDeclarativeComponent component(view->engine(), QUrl("Effect.qml")); QObject *myObject = component.create(); this probably isn't the right way to go about this, but I'm not sure what is. When I run this code, I don't see the Effect elements, but I do get debug messages saying "Effect.qml:10: Error: Invalid attempt to destroy() an indestructible object".
