\title Qt Quick UI Forms
You can use \QC wizards to create UI forms that have the filename extension
\e .ui.qml. The UI forms contain a purely declarative subset of the QML
language. It is recommended that you edit the forms in the \uicontrol Design mode.
\QC enforces the use of the supported QML features by displaying error
messages.
The following features are not supported:
\list
\li JavaScript blocks
\li Function definitions
\li Function calls (except \c qsTr)
\li Other bindings than pure expressions
\li Signal handlers
\li States in other items than the root item
\li Root items that are not derived from \l QQuickItem or \l [QML]{Item}
\endlist
The following types are not supported:
\list
\li Behavior
\li Binding
\li Canvas
\li Component
\li Shader Effect
\li Timer
\li Transform
\li Transition
\endlist
\section1 Using Qt Quick UI Forms
You can edit the forms in the \uicontrol {Form Editor} and
\uicontrol {Text Editor} tabs in the \uicontrol Design mode. Items that are
supposed to be used in QML code have to be exported as properties:
\code
Item {
width: 640
height: 480
property alias button: button
Button {
anchors.centerIn: parent
id: button
text: qsTr("Press Me")
}
}
\endcode
The property alias exports the button to the QML code that uses the form.
You can use the
\inlineimage export_checked.png
(\uicontrol Export) button in the \uicontrol Navigator to export an item as
a property:
\image qmldesigner-export-item.png
In the QML file that uses the form, you can use the \c button property alias
to implement signal handlers, for example. In the following code snippet,
the UI form is called \e MainForm.ui.qml:
\code
MainForm {
anchors.fill: parent
button.onClicked: messageDialog.show(qsTr("Button pressed"))
}
\endcode
You can also assign properties or define behavior or transitions.
To move from the \uicontrol Design mode directly to the implementation of a
type in the .qml file, right-click the type in the \uicontrol Navigator and
select \uicontrol {Go to Implementation} in the context menu.
