Font property styling

[korzhp]

Hi

I would make something like this:
@
Item
{
id: root

QtObject {
    id:style
    property font mainFont:{ family: "Times"; pointSize: 42; capitalization: Font.AllUppercase }
}

Text {
    font: style.mainFont
}

}
@
but I've got error in line 7
it's not possible create property with font type.

Are there any solution for this situation?

May be I am wrong but I think you should use font-family instead of family.

Hope you get it

As a matter of fact, try this

property font mainFont:{ font-family: "Times"; font-size: 42px; font-variant: small-caps }

It does not work. It's not possible to create property with font type.

Unfortunately the above isn't really possible at the moment. Some alternatives are:

• Be explicit with each property. (Text { font.family: style.family; font.pointSize: style.pointSize ... })
• Created a styled, reusable Text element (See e.g. "Styling in QML":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/QmlStyling)

You'll need to set the individual font properties like font.family, font.pointSize etc. instead of just setting 'font'.
