How to close a popup window using closePolicy in QML

[mamoud]

Hi,
I have this popupwindow and I want to close it using closePolicy, when I press ESC on keyboard, it closes

    PopupWindow {
        id: Acurve
        width: 300
        height: 120
        title: "Test"
        opacity: 0
        visible:false
    }

I tried to write closPolicy:
but it seems that I need to define this property first as enumeration, but i dont know how?

There is something called (Popup.CloseOnEscape) but I am not sure how to implement it

@mamoud
what is PopupWindow is that part oif the normal QML lib ?
I know of the Popup-item and you can very easily defined the close options

Popup {
        id: Acurve
        width: 300
        height: 120
        title: "Test"
        opacity: 0
        visible:false

       closePolicy: Popup.CloseOnEscape
    }

@J.Hilk said in How to close a popup window using closePolicy in QML:

   closePolicy: Popup.CloseOnEscape

Thank you for reply, but I typically copied paste your code and got this error

Invalid property name "closePolicy"

@mamoud
like I said thats for the normal Popup -item, I don't know about PopupWindow

example for a ppopup directly from the docu:

import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import QtQuick.Controls 2.1

ApplicationWindow {
    id: window
    width: 400
    height: 400
    visible: true

    Button {
        text: "Open"
        onClicked: popup.open()
    }

    Popup {
        id: popup
        x: 100
        y: 100
        width: 200
        height: 300
        modal: true
        focus: true
        closePolicy: Popup.CloseOnEscape | Popup.CloseOnPressOutsideParent
    }
}

Hey any help,
I know how to implement the popup, but in my popup file, the property closePolicy is not defined, can I know how it is defined?

Do you have exactly these import statements?

import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import QtQuick.Controls 2.1

What is the content of your pro file?
