    Is that supposed to be complete code? Minimal effort from your side will result in minimal efforts from others trying to help.
    Cheers.

        I have this error :

        qrc:/ColorFunc.js:3: ReferenceError: rectId is not defined
        

        My qml file is Rect50.qml :

        import "ColorFunc.js" as MyColor
        ............
        
        onPressed: MyColor.changeColor(colorM)
        

        My extrnal javascript file ColorFunc.js :

        function changeColor(param1) {
        
                rectId.color = param1;
        }

        Hi @behruz-montazeri
        With the full code, that was so much easier to understand and to test ...

        Change the following:

        onPressed: MyColor.changeColor(rectId, colorM)
        

        and

        function changeColor(rectId, param1) {
            rectId.color = param1;
        }
        

        The reason your code does not work is that the ID you define inside a Component's Item has no meaning in the context after it is created.

            You mean a Matching Game like this one:
            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsLG-1CbfTQ
            I think you are well on your way to succeed.

            However, the use of an extra ItemDelegate in your Component definition is somewhat redundant. You could it improve it by doing e.g.:

                        Component{
                            id:mComponent
            
                           MouseArea {
                                id: mouseArea
                                width:parent.width
                                height: rectId.height
            
                                Rectangle{
                                    id:rectId
                                    width: parent.width
                                    height: 80
                                    border.width: 6
                                    border.color: "black"
            
                                    color: mouseArea.containsPress ? colorM : "firebrick"
            
                                    Text {
            
                                        anchors.verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter
                                        x:30

                                    Image {

                  if(lastColor === param1 ){
                      console.log("Second");
                       rectId.color = param1

                Do a Google search for that: JavaScript + static local variable.

                  I did one. I changed my function. But here's another problem it work for only one qml file and if we call it from another qml file counter is Zero.

                  function changeColor(rectId, param1) {
                      if( typeof changeColor.counter == 'undefined' ) {
                          changeColor.counter  = 0;
                      }
                      changeColor.counter++
                  }

                    I did one. I changed my function. But here's another problem it work for only one qml file and if we call it from another qml file counter is Zero.

                    function changeColor(rectId, param1) {
                        if( typeof changeColor.counter == 'undefined' ) {
                            changeColor.counter  = 0;
                        }
                        changeColor.counter++
                    }

                    Then use a global JS variable.

                      Yes that's the case.

                       property int counter: 0

                        that's not a JS variable. That's a QML object property.

                            In a javascript file. Otherwise create a property at a top-level QML object, e.g. your main window, which exists for the duration of your app.

                              I guess creating property make seance in my situation. making a Javascript file variable doesn't keep track of increasing despite the several calls from different QML files.
