    I know that you can create a separate QML file and create the javascript statements and then import the QML Item into the QML UI file, but I want to know if there is a way to directly implement switch statements and other javascript functions into QML UI files.

    Thanks!

      Hi @GoldRatio, *.ui.qml files are meant to only contain elements that are editable via the Qt Quick Designer. Switch statements are not declarative code, so they are not supported in *.ui.qml files: http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-quick-ui-forms.html

      If you want, you can put everything (graphical items AND switch statements) inside a single *.qml file. This is actually how QML originally worked. *ui.qml files are a recent addition, created to support the Qt Quick Designer.
