How to replace the effect property of the Text element [SOLVED]

[Bidochon]

I noticed that in previous version of QML, it was possible for example to blur some text such as

@
Rectangle {
width: 400
height: 200
color: "lightblue"

Text {
    anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
    anchors.verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter
    text: "Qt Quick"; font.pixelSize: 64
    effect: Blur { blurRadius: 5 }
}

}
@

I can't find the blur property anymore. How can we achieve the same effect?

Thanks

hi
first of all you should import: import QtGraphicalEffects 1.0
http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/graphicaleffects.html
and then use FastBlur Type:

@import QtQuick 2.0
import QtGraphicalEffects 1.0

Item {
width: 300
height: 300

Text {
    id: text
    anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
    anchors.verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter
    text: "Qt Quick"; font.pixelSize: 64
}

FastBlur {
    anchors.fill: text
    source: text
    radius: 32
}

}@

So I guess what used to be the effect method inside text/image..etc, is now its own Element.

Thanks a lot madoodia.
