onPaint event not triggered twice

sierdzio

@itzwich1 said in onPaint event not triggered twice:

Component.onCompleted:{
value: 20 //Works not (Only one of both Arrows will draw with onPaint
}

This syntax is incorrect. It should be:

 Component.onCompleted:{
               value = 20
          }

@sierdzio sorry thats my mistake. I said (value = 20)

Assignment like this (with =) breaks bindings (with :). So, if you rely on some property to set the value (like value: someOtherValue), don't add override in onCompleted.

@sierdzio I do not use both versions at the same time. If I use the value: 20 it works fine and my up and down arrows will painted. If I use (Component.onCompleted: value = 20) instead of (value: 20) it doesn't work.

OK, now I begin to understand :-) Try forcing a repaint in your setter for value property (in C++).

@sierdzio How can I trigger onPaint event on c++ side?

sierdzio

You can call updatePaintNode(yourMainNode, nullptr); if you have the main node stored somewhere. Alternatively, mark the node as dirty https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsgnode.html#markDirty

@sierdzio I think that solves not the problem. I try to use update() which call updatePaintNode in it (according the doku). Problem is still there.

Verify if it's called or not with debugger or qDebug.

Maybe paste the drawing code here, perhaps there's something wrong there?

My colleague could help me. It looks like that the general layouting went wrong.
