• use Repeater in your GridLayout to create the items you need

But Repeater supports only one Component as delegate. I want it to fill 2 columns of GridLayout with 2 Text delegates.

Wrap the 2 delegates in a single component and use the index property to decide which to use for each cell.

@jeremy_k I am not sure how to achieve it, can you provide some sample code?

[jeremy_k]

GridLayout {
    columns: 2
    Repeater {
        model: 10
        delegate: Text {
                text: index % 2 == 0 ? "text " + index : "text" * index
        }
    }
}

For more complicated or external delegates, substitute DelegateChooser or Loader for the Text item.

@jeremy_k But my model is in format of QVariantMap, for example:

"key" : { "label": "first text"; "value": "text" }
"key2" : { "label": "second text"; "value": "text text" }

so i cannot see how to take advantage of indexes in here.

[jeremy_k]

@Kyeiv Use a model.

Edit: QVariantMap might be directly usable as a model for a repeater as well. If so, index is available, as is modelData.

[Kyeiv]

@jeremy_k yes but still if so, i cannot take advantage of the index property when i use one object, let's say of index 1 to fill 2 Texts

i need something like:

GridLayout {
    columns: 2
    Repeater {
        model: model.map
        delegate: Text {
                text: modelData.label
                horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignRight
                Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignRight
        }
       Text {
                text: modelData.value
        }
    }
}

@Kyeiv You might be better off starting from a sketch or a description the use case. It looks like this is implementing the hard way, perhaps porting from a toolkit with a different structure.

@jeremy_k
what i have: a map of objects which have 2 attributes - label and value.
what i want to achieve: the formatted list of them in form of:

                        first label text: value text
                       second label text: value text
                    the third label text: its value text

so its centered, the " : " in the middle.

@Kyeiv said in Error: Qt.createQmlObject(): failed to create object: Non-existent attached object:

GridLayout {
columns: 2
Repeater {
model: model.map
delegate: Text {
text: modelData.label
horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignRight
Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignRight
}
Text {
text: modelData.value
}
}
}

Then just put them in one delegate item:

GridLayout {
    columns: 2
    Repeater {
        model: model.map
        delegate: Column {
        Text {
                text: modelData.label
                horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignRight
                Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignRight
        }
       Text {
                text: modelData.value
        }
        }
    }
}

A ListView appears to be a better match than the more complicated GridLayout and Repeater.

ListView {
    delegate: Item {
        width: ListView.view.width
        height: childrenRect.height
        Text {
            anchors.right: parent.horizontalCenter
            text: modelData.firstPart + ":"
        }
        Text {
            anchors.left: parent.horizontalCenter
            text: modelData.secondPart
        }
    }
}
