What's the Qt6 equivalent to Gauge?

[Asperamanca]

In Qt5 there ware a linear and circular gauge QML type. The API wasn't very nice, but it was useful to show something quickly.

I can't find any mention of it in Qt6 documentation, not even under "deprecated and removed" types in the porting guide.

Any idea what happened to it? Any replacement?

Can you not just use the QT5 one in your QT6 project?

Looks like the entire "Qt Quick Extras" module hasn't been ported to Qt 6: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-extras-qmlmodule.html

The API wasn't very nice

That's probably the main reason. Plus the fact that the Extras were designed for Qt Quick Controls 1 (which is definitely dead and buried).

I suggest opening a feature request to create new equivalents with a nicer API.

Thanks!
That matches my findings so far, except that in any blog that I can find mentioning Qt Extras and Qt6, it sounds like they are only talking about platform-specific code that was dropped. The word "Gauge" never appears.

There was also no mention in the Gauge documentation that it was related to Qt Quick Controls 1, otherwise I wouldn't have touched it.
