    We have a top-level QML object inside a QWidget. For the high-level object we call installTranslatorFunctions and the application's current translators are installed appropriately. The QML strings are properly translated.

    However, from our top-level QML object we call Qt.createComponent followed by component.createObject call to show a pure QML dialog. Our problem is the strings in the dynamically created dialog are not being translated appropriately. The same strings that are shared in the top-level QML (from where createComponent is called) are being translated and displayed properly. So we do not suspect that this is a more global issue of not going through the translation process correctly. Is there are separate step that needs to be done to install a translator for this dynamic component? I couldn't find reference to that in my searches.

    We are using Qt 5.4.1.

    Thank you for any assistance or thoughts anyone may provide!

    var component = Qt.createComponent("EditServerDialog.qml")
    var dialog = component.createObject(root, {visible: true, currentIndex: -1})
    

    Where EditServerDialog.qml is (edited for brevity):

    import QtQuick 2.4
    import QtQuick.Window 2.0
    
    import "qrc:/QML/GUI/QML"
    
    Window {
        id: editServerDialogWindow
        width: 600
        height: 350
        flags: Qt.Dialog
        modality: Qt.ApplicationModal
    
    
        EditServerDialogForm {
       }
    }
    

    and EditServerDialogForm was created in QML Designer:

    import QtQuick 2.4
    import QtQuick.Controls 1.2
    
    Item {
        id: editServerUiContent
        clip: false
        width: 600
        height: 350
        transformOrigin: Item.Center
        
        Label {
            id: label1
            x: 39
            y: 41
            text: qsTr("Connection Name")
            verticalAlignment: Text.AlignVCenter
        }
    
        Label {
            id: label2
            x: 116
            y: 81
            text: qsTr("Server")
        }
    
        Label {
            id: label3

        }

            x: 92
            y: 201
            text: qsTr("Username")
        }
    
        Label {
            id: label6
            x: 95

      Hi,

      I had almost the same problem. In my case, I wanted translate a string in ListModel and qsTr("MyString") didn't work. I have solved the problem with using QT_TR_NOOP("MyString"). Have you tested ?

      Bye & good luck.

      Charlie

        I'm not sure how that would work in this case. We will give it a shot. These are static strings defined within the QML itself - nothing fancy like a list view.
