Creating and showing new QML objects from C++

[JackCWallace]

Hi, I am trying to create a new object in C++, and delete an old one, basically replacing it. I have created the QObject, and have given it the properties I want, but I cannot show it on the page.

        QObject *j = new QObject();                

        j->setParent(title->parent());
        j->setProperty("x", title->property("x"));
        j->setProperty("y", title->property("y"));
        j->setProperty("z", title->property("z"));
        j->setProperty("width", title->property("width"));
        j->setProperty("height", title->property("height"));
        j->setProperty("color", "#ffffff");
        j->setProperty("text", val.trimmed());

        title->setProperty("text",val.trimmed());

basically I want to create j, and replace title with it.

I understand I can change the text of title, but that is not what I want to do.

@JackCWallace You need to set an visual parent to the newly created item using setParentItem. For this you will have to create a QQuickItem ofcourse.
