Trouble with anchors

Circuits

I am attempting to create a text box which will display the value the user is entering inside of the keyboard:

Row
    {
        id: idFlowDigitsEntryBox
        width: (keyWidth * 3 + keySpacing * 2) * 2
        height: 50
        anchors.bottom: idFlowDigits.top
        anchors.leftMargin: keySpacing
        spacing: keySpacing

        Rectangle
        {
            id: display
            color: "white"
            width: parent.width
            height: keyHeight
            radius: 5

            Text //<- error's on this line
            {
                id: entryDisplay
                width: parent.width - 50
                anchors.centerIn: idFlowDigitsEntryBox
                color: "black"
            }
        }

    }

error:

QML QQuickText: Cannot anchor to an item that isn't a parent or sibling.

Why am I getting this error, any ideas?

The error message is clear - you should anchor to parent, not grand parent. Change your code to:

anchors.centerIn: parent

And the error will go away.
