Accessing either one of two components

[ben80]

Hi,

What's the preferred way of accessing either one of of two rectangle items?

I "instantiate" a rectangle component (which contains other rectangles and an image) twice -> idRect1, idRect2.
Depending on some conditions, that are evaluated in JS i would like to access either one of the rectangles. Then, i need to:

1. read and set properties
2. update bindings

So far i am using code like shown below. This seems to work, but is very prone to weird conditions. My code seems to "overwrite" properties of the not selected component.

idRectX = idRect1
idRectX.property1 = 111
idRectX.anchors.horizontalCenter  = Qt.binding(function() {return idRoot.horizontalCenter})

Thanks for your help,
Ben

@ben80 What happens if you, just for the sake of testing, do something like

if (...) {
    idRect1.property1 = 111
    ...
} else {
     idRect2.property1 = 111
    ...
}

?

Good idea, i will try that as soon as i find some spare time.

Though, that cannot be the final solution. I would have to copy too much code.
So, what's the right way of doing it?
