Temporarily display an item

[Markkyboy]

You need a rectangle, a mousearea and a timer.

When the rectangle is clicked with mouse, x of rectangle shifts by 40 px. The mouse click also starts the timer running. The timer determines when x of the rectangle moves back to 0.

import QtQuick 2.7
import QtQuick.Controls 2.3

Rectangle {
    id: redsquare
    color: "red"
    width: 200
    height: 200
    x: 0
    y: 0

    MouseArea {
        anchors.fill: parent
        onClicked: {
            redsquare.x = 40
            movetimer.running = true
        }
    }
    Timer {
        id: movetimer
        interval: 10000
        running: false
        repeat: true
        onTriggered: {
            redsquare.x = 0
            movetimer.running = false
        }
    }
}

MouseArea {

        movetimer.running = false
    }
}

}

Thank you very much. I still have a question how to make this square move linearly (now it jumps to x: 40), and after moving it to be more transparent (opaticy 0.4)?

There are a number of ways to animate a movement.

I would use SequentialAnimation on a property of the Rectangle. By using SequentialAnimation, we can change a few properties of Rectangle, like shifting X to the right, back to the left or Opacity up, then down.

Rectangle {
    id: redsquare
    color: "red"
    width: 200
    height: 200
    x: 0
    y: 0
    // animation control
    SequentialAnimation on x {
        id: moving
        loops: 1
        running: false
        NumberAnimation {
            from: 0
            to: 140
            duration: 2000
        }
        PauseAnimation { duration: 2000 }
        NumberAnimation {
            from: 140
            to: 0
            duration: 250
        }
    }
    SequentialAnimation on opacity {
        id: opacitychange
        loops: 1
        running: false
        NumberAnimation {
            from: 1.0
            to: 0.4
            duration: 2000
        }
        PauseAnimation { duration: 2000 }
        NumberAnimation {
            from: 0.4
            to: 1.0
            duration: 2000
        }
    }
    Timer {
        id: movetimer
        interval: 2000
        running: false
        repeat: true
        onTriggered: {
            moving.running = true
            opacitychange.running = true
            movetimer.running = false
        }
    }
    MouseArea {
        anchors.fill: redsquare
        onClicked: {
            movetimer.running = true
            moving.running = true
            opacitychange.running = true
        }
    }
}

More declaratively:

Rectangle {
    id: redsquare
    color: "red"
    width: 200
    height: 200
    property real hideProgress: timer.running ? 1 : 0
    x: -40 * hideProgress
    opacity: 1- 0.4 * hideProgress
    TapHandler {
        onTapped: timer.start()
    } 
    Behavior on hideProgress {
        NumberAnimation {
            easing.type: Easing.InOutQuad
        } 
   }
   Timer {
        id: timer
        interval: 10000
   }
}

Used a single property to animate both x and opacity, but they could be separated

@Markkyboy Is it possible to make the text color change automatically? For example, it causes the display of text showing the temperature. I would like it to be blue up to 18 degrees, white from 19 to 27, and red from 28. Can you do something like that?

[mzimmers]

@Darq if I understand your question, that's straightforward: just make the color property dependent on the temperature. You'd use 2 trinary operators for this.

[Darq]

@mzimmers Can you please give an example?

[mzimmers]

@Darq something like this:

    Rectangle {
        id: rect
        property real temperature // assign something to this
        color: rect.temperature < 19 ? 'blue' : rect.temperature < 28 ? 'white' : 'red'
    }

A question from another department, namely, maybe someone will know. I have an installation package and I want the system to reset after 15 seconds from starting its installation. Would anyone have an idea for this?

item1 = XXXXX
Open1 = XXXXX
Options = Autoinstall

[mzimmers]

@Darq given how different that question is from your original, it's better to put it in its own topic. More people may react to the new title.
