I am having a problem getting a member of a custom QQuickItem I created to anchor to its parent. I know that it is loading and the constructor is running because of some debug statements I placed, however for some reason anchoring to parent is not working on the sub-object.
Note: lots of shortening of code happened here. I hope everything is relevant without being overwhelming
qml Snippet
PDFDocument
{
id: pdfDocument
anchors.fill: parent
visible: false
pageView
{
dpi: 200
//this is not working and paint is not being called
//QML PDFPageView: Cannot anchor to an item that isn't a parent or sibling.
anchors.fill: parent
}
}
c++ code snippets
// PDFPageView.h
namespace TechnicalPublications
{
class PDFPageView : public QQuickPaintedItem
{
public:
Q_OBJECT
Q_PROPERTY( int dpi MEMBER m_dpi NOTIFY dpiChanged )
Q_SIGNALS:
void dpiChanged();
public:
PDFPageView( QQuickItem* parent = nullptr );
~PDFPageView();
void setPage( Poppler::Page* page_p );
void paint( QPainter* painter_p );
private:
Poppler::Page* m_page_p;
};
}
//PDFPage.cpp
namespace TechnicalPublications
{
PDFPageView::PDFPageView( QQuickItem* parent )
: QQuickPaintedItem( parent )
{
LOG_DEBUG( __FILE__, __LINE__ ) << "Page parent" << parent;
LOG_DEBUG( __FILE__, __LINE__ ) << "constructing PageView" << this;
}
void PDFPageView::setPage( Poppler::Page* page_p )
{
m_page_p = page_p;
update();
}
void PDFPageView::paint( QPainter* painter_p )
{
LOG_DEBUG( __FILE__, __LINE__ ) << "painting pdf page";
//deleted sections for spacing, point is paint is not called because size is 0
}
}
//PDFDocument.h
class PDFDocument : public QQuickItem
{
public:
Q_OBJECT
Q_PROPERTY( TechnicalPublications::PDFPageView* pageView READ getPageView )
PDFDocument( QQuickItem* parent = nullptr );
~PDFDocument();
PDFPageView* getPageView() { return &m_pageView; }
private:
PDFPageView m_pageView;
};
}
#endif // PDFDOCUMENT_H
//PDFDocument.cpp
namespace TechnicalPublications
{
PDFDocument::PDFDocument( QQuickItem* parent /*= nullptr*/ )
: QQuickItem( parent ),
m_pageView( this )
{
LOG_DEBUG( __FILE__, __LINE__ ) << "Document parent " << parent;
LOG_DEBUG( __FILE__, __LINE__ ) << "constructing Document " << this;
}
PDFDocument::~PDFDocument()
{
}
}
I would even be happy to set the anchors to always take the parent in the c++ is possible, but I know visual settings like that are supposed to be handled in QML specifically. Any thoughts on why this is being a problem?
It's because the scope of your grouped property (just a nested QObject* property), is the same of the parent object.
so when you do:
PDFDocument {
id: pdfDocument
pageView {
anchors.fill: parent
}
}
parent
is referring to the parent of pdfDocument
. You want to do anchors.fill: pdfDocument
.
Alternatively it might makes sense to anchor it in c++ and avoid doing it in QML if always need to do it.
