@GrecKo Thank you for your answer. the wheel signal provides a wheel object though, you can do wheel.accepted = false. Good point, I missed that. This resolve the issue I faced with onWheel. The more correct way to get parameter from signal handlers now is to define them as function, not rely on context properties. Ok, thanks for the tip. I'll try this way in the future. I am curious about your usecase of capturing onWheel on a ListView, can you give more details? In my case it's just to close a hint opened from a button on an item in my view. The hint position is linked to the opening button position, and as I use a ToolTip, the hint continue to scroll outside my view when the item containing the button go out of the view. For that reason I want to close this hint before scrolling the view. Anyway, have you looked at Qt Quick Input Handlers? This seems to be an interesting alternative indeed. However I tried to use it, but it seems not react at all in my view. Here is the code I tested, am I doing something wrong? TapHandler { target: myView acceptedButtons: Qt.LeftButton | Qt.RightButton onTapped: { console.log("onTapped called..."); } onSingleTapped: { console.log("onSingleTapped called..."); } }

Finally I searched a while by myself, and I think I may answer my own question. Although I couldn't completely resolve my issue, I noticed that the answer is hidden in the other MouseArea events. For example, by handling the onPressed event and adding the mouse.accepted in several key locations, I could let the component take care of the scrolling when the left mouse button is pressed, whereas the right click opens a popup menu. My conclusion is that there is no ready-to-use way, i.e there is no parameter to activate in the MouseArea itself which may resolve this kind of issue, and the solution is a good balance between activating different parameters in the different functions.

Thank you, it works!

I finally succeed to create this using 2 MultiPointTouchArea but I had to write drag function on touchUpdated event. Here is my code for one drag area: import QtQuick 2.0 Item{ id: joystick width: 100 height: 500 Rectangle{ id: joystickPad height: 50 width: 100 MultiPointTouchArea{ property var offset: null anchors.fill:parent minimumTouchPoints: 1 maximumTouchPoints: 1 function dragMove(point) { if (point) { var position = joystick.mapFromItem(joystickPad, point.x, point.y); /* Change y axis */ if((position.y - offset.y) < 0) { /* Do not go on top of drag area */ joystickPad.y = 0; } else { if((position.y - offset.y) > (joystick.height-joystickPad.height)) { /* Do not go below of drag area */ joystickPad.y = (joystick.height-joystickPad.height); } else { joystickPad.y = position.y - offset.y; } } } } onPressed: { var point = touchPoints[0]; offset = Qt.point(point.x, point.y); } onTouchUpdated: { var point = touchPoints[0]; dragMove(point); } onReleased: { //Reset position joystickPad.x = (joystick.width/2 - joystickPad.width/2) joystickPad.y = (joystick.height/2 - joystickPad.height/2) } } } }

Thanks for your input jpnurmi! Yes I'm using 5.8 and 5.9 beta is fixing this issue! Thanks for pointing it out! For some reason I didn't find this bug! Best, nx

@JLimbocker Tried your code but unfortunately it does not exactly what I want. It is selecting from the beginning instead of from where I was clicking when dragging. Problem with passing the mouse event through to the TextField is that when I do that using mouse.accepted = false. The other handler like onRelease: are not called on the MouseArea anymore which destroys my handling there. The selectAll() could be switched off when something is already selected but I do not know why that TextField's selection is starting from the beginning... Anyone knows how to forward the mouse events to an underlying element but still have the complete handling in the MouseArea available? That would solve my question.

I just stumbled accros the same odd behavior with Qt 5.7.1. However, the strange thing is, that it seems to be only a problem on android (on windows it's fine). Does anybody know if that's a (already reported) bug?

In my understanding this is exact what onClicked does. From the online documentation: "A click is defined as a press followed by a release, both inside the MouseArea (pressing, moving outside the MouseArea, and then moving back inside and releasing is also considered a click)." MouseArea { anchors.fill: parent onClicked: console.log("released") onPressed: console.log("pressed") }

@kafanti If MouseArea handles mouse event it doesn't pass event to its parent. You need: onPressed: { mouse.accepted = false; }

You're welcome ! Since the mystery is gone, please mark the thread as solved using the "Topic Tool" button so that other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

Hello @p3c0 thank you for helping. Unfortunately i did try as you suggested but no luck so far. Mouse wheel is not responding it just wok when i press and drag Don't know what could be the issue. I must check other files of my app maybe something is interfering with this file.

@dzimiwine Did you try acceptedButtons ? acceptedButtons: Qt.MiddleButton : Qt.RightButton

@nnnnn Hmm. I overlooked your onEntered requirement. It doesnot work in my example. The problem is that once you set mouse.accepted=false the release event is not trapped.

I still had to remove the QWidget.. it's useless this way. My error was that I can't have a QWidget class without a QQmlApplicationEngine.

This problem occurs in qt 5.4 under linux. I just checked, and it doesn't occur under 5.3 - there, onExit is correctly triggered even on drag-release outside the GridView.

@mcosta Actually, my problem is solved. Thanks to @t3685 for the solution. I've just forgot to mark it as SOLVED. Anyway, thanks ;)

@nedo99: A big thanks for the tip! That in fact solved my problem, but maybe not in the way you might have thought! I finally got it to work this way: MouseArea { id: myMouseArea property point cursorPos property bool cursorPosActive : false // new code to handle flicking property point startFlickContentRef: Qt.point(0, 0) property point startFlickMousePos: Qt.point(mouseX, mouseY) property bool flicking: false function setStartFlickMousePos(x,y) { // "prepare" for flicking whenever we have a legitimate mouse pos... if (!flicking) // ...but are not actually flicking! startFlickMousePos = Qt.point(x,y) } function startFlick(refPt) { // Note: startFlick() might be called multiple times before endFlick() is called... if (!flicking) { // ...so this is an important check! startFlickContentRef = refPt flicking = true } } function endFlick(refPt) { if (flicking) { var diffX = refPt.x - startFlickContentRef.x var diffY = refPt.y - startFlickContentRef.y statBar.cursorPos = Qt.point(startFlickMousePos.x + diffX, startFlickMousePos.y + diffY) flicking = false } } anchors.fill: parent hoverEnabled: true onClicked: { // MouseEvent OK cursorPos = Qt.point(mouse.x, mouse.y) setStartFlickMousePos(mouse.x, mouse.y) } onEntered: { // here: mouseX/Y OK? cursorPos = Qt.point(mouseX, mouseY) setStartFlickMousePos(mouseX, mouseY) cursorPosActive = true } onExited: { cursorPosActive = false } onPositionChanged: { // MouseEvent OK cursorPos = Qt.point(mouse.x, mouse.y) setStartFlickMousePos(mouse.x, mouse.y) } onWheel: { // WheelEvent OK cursorPos = Qt.point(wheel.x, wheel.y) setStartFlickMousePos(wheel.x, wheel.y) wheel.accepted = false; // pass to Flickable } } Then I added the following code to my Flickable: onFlickStarted: { myMouseArea.startFlick(Qt.point(contentX, contentY)) } onFlickEnded: { myMouseArea.endFlick(Qt.point(contentX, contentY)) } Note that it turned out to be important to use onFlickStarted/Ended instead of onMovementStarted/Ended. Also it's important to update the startFlickMousePos at every opportunity, because at the point where I normally would want to set it (in startFlick()), I might not have a valid mouseX and mouseY (that was the reason for this post in the first place!). Again thanks! Together we are strong!

@shedo Hmm. Well then try to use the only relevant code from the blog post into your original code. The code of interest would be the one in onWheel handler and the properties it updates.

@maxsivkov Scenario is to have several elements (images with attached mouseareas (to change image source when mouse is inside the image) and also show hints (tooltips) for listview's item. So its better no to do it when the ListView scrolls and only when user hovers mouse over that particular Item To show tooltip my idea was to sit on a onPositionChanged event and restart timer, stop it in onExited event. I think better to use onEntered and onExited. Using onPositionChanged will continuously restart it as mouse moves. Also hide it after a particular timeout instead of only in onExited.
