QML + CSS

[srikanth_trulyit]

I think you already referred to "this":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/QmlStyling ,i got an idea from that guide itself.

[Schneidi]

The .qml approach could be one way.
I implement a javascript file with objects which provide the style information.
This work pretty well too.

hi Schneidi
can you explain your work with example?
thanks

[Tomme]

Hi Madoodia,
I think Schneidi do that :
Create a Js script called "Style.js" for example :
@function styleText( myText) {
myText.font.family= "Serif"
myText.font.italic= true
myText.font.pointSize= 6
}@
And in the qml file you want to use it :
@import QtQuick 2.2
import QtQuick.Window 2.1
import "Style.js" as Style

Window {
visible: true
width: 360
height: 360

MouseArea {
    anchors.fill: parent
    onClicked: {
        Qt.quit();
    }
}

Text {
    id: text
    text: qsTr("Hello World")

    anchors.centerIn: parent
    Component.onCompleted: {Style.styleText(text);}
}

}@

like this :
p {
border-top-style: dotted;
border-right-style: solid;

I'm not sure I understand you very well.
In pure QML you can't use CSS (I don't think so). Maybe are you working with a webview or a textedit or a QtQuickControl ?

Hello,

Here the "CSS span" property is used in QML Text item.
I think we can use the css directly in QML files.

@import QtQuick 2.0
Rectangle {
width: 400; height: 400
Text { Text: "Hello <span style="font-size:24px">world</span>"; textFormat: Text.RichText}}@

Sorry it was a mistake form my side. I agreed with Tomme as we cannot use CSS in pure QML.
But chick this new Styling technique available in Qt 5.3, "QML Styling":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtquickcontrolsstyles-index.html

QML provides most of the features of CSS and javascript. Also check this "link":https://qt-project.org/wiki/QmlStyling.

Welcome. Glad to hear from you.

Does QML support CSS? forum.qt.io/post/584878 appears to indicate that it does, yet this thread, and the existence of github.com/Ableton/aqt-stylesheets, indicate otherwise.

[Bob64]

I wonder if that forum post is referring to text components that support html to some extent, rather than to QML itself?
