Qt Quick Examples - Drag and Drop▲
Drag and Drop is a collection of small QML examples relating to the drag and drop functionality. For more information, visit the Drag and Drop page.
Running the Example▲
To run the example from Qt Creator, open the Welcome mode and select the example from Examples. For more information, visit Building and Running an Example.
Tiles▲
Tiles adds drag and drop to simple rectangles, which you can drag into a specific grid.
It has a DragTile component which uses a MouseArea to move an item when dragged:
Item {
id: root
required property string colorKey
required property int modelData
width: 64
height: 64
MouseArea {
id: mouseArea
width: 64
height: 64
anchors.centerIn: parent
drag.target: tile
onReleased: parent = tile.Drag.target !== null ? tile.Drag.target : root
Rectangle {
id: tile
width: 64
height: 64
anchors {
verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter
horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
}
color: root.colorKey
Drag.keys: [ root.colorKey ]
Drag.active: mouseArea.drag.active
Drag.hotSpot.x: 32
Drag.hotSpot.y: 32
states: State {
when: mouseArea.drag.active
AnchorChanges {
target: tile
anchors {
verticalCenter: undefined
horizontalCenter: undefined
}
}
}
}
}
}And a DropTile component on which the dragged tiles can be dropped:
DropArea {
id: dragTarget
property string colorKey
width: 64
height: 64
keys: [ colorKey ]
Rectangle {
id: dropRectangle
anchors.fill: parent
color: dragTarget.containsDrag ? "grey" : dragTarget.colorKey
}
}The keys property of the DropArea will only allow an item to be dropped on it if it has a matching key in its Drag.keys property.
GridView Example▲
The GridView Example adds drag and drop to a GridView, allowing you to visually reorder the delegates without changing the underlying ListModel. It uses a DelegateModel to move a delegate item to the position of another item it is dragged over.
model: DelegateModel {
delegate: DropArea {
id: delegateRoot
required property color color
width: 80
height: 80
onEntered: function(drag) {
visualModel.items.move((drag.source as Icon).visualIndex, icon.visualIndex)
}
property int visualIndex: DelegateModel.itemsIndex
Icon {
id: icon
dragParent: root
visualIndex: delegateRoot.visualIndex
color: delegateRoot.color
}
}
