Unsolved Accessing and altering the same view from different Qml files

[Ahti]

I just wanna know if this is the right way of passing selected view item from main.qml to profile.qml. Here is my code:

main.qml:

import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQuick.Controls 2.0
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.3
import UserModel 0.1

ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    
    // Invisible Row used to access and alter view defined in some other Qml file
    Row {
        id: helper
        visible: false

        // other helper functions...

        property variant m: null  // global variable
        function show_profile(model){           
            helper.m = model  
            home.pop()
            home.push("Profile.qml")
        }
    }

    StackView {
        id: home
        anchors.fill: parent
        padding: 0

        initialItem: Pane {
            id: pane

            ListView {
                anchors.fill: parent

                delegate: SwipeDelegate {
                        width: parent.width
                        height: 50
                        text: model.name

                        swipe.onCompleted: {
                            if (swipe.position > 0)
                                // passing item of view to different qml file
                                helper.show_profile(model, "Profile")
                            swipe.close()
                        }
                        swipe.left: Label {
                            id: profile_swipe
                            text: qsTr("Profile")
                            color: "white"
                            verticalAlignment: Label.AlignVCenter
                            padding: 12
                            height: parent.height
                            anchors.left: parent.left
                        }
                }
                model: UserModel { id: user_model }
            }
        }
    }
}

Profile.qml:

import QtQuick 2.0
import QtQuick.Controls 2.4
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.3

Pane {
    id: profile
    padding: 0

    RowLayout {
        id: user_detail

        Button {
            id: back
            text: "Back"
            onClicked: {
                helper.m = null
                home.pop()
            }
        }
        Label {
                id: username
                text: helper.m.name
              }
        Label {
                id: address
                text: helper.m.address
              }
        Label {
                id: join_date
                text: helper.m.join_date
              }
        Button {
            id: del
            text: "Delete"
            onClicked: {
                user_model.removeRow(helper.m.index)
                back.clicked()
            }
        }
    }
}

Is helper.m the right way of having same view in different Qml files ?

You can get StackView instance from Profile.qml quite easy, using StackView attached properties. Define new property at your StackView:

    StackView {
        id: home
        property var modeldata: null // Define StackView property
        
        initialItem: Pane {
            ...
            ListView {
                ...
                delegate: SwipeDelegate {
                    ...
                    swipe.onCompleted: {
                        if (swipe.position > 0) {
                            home.modeldata = model; // Set StackView property
                            home.pop();
                            home.push("Profile.qml");
                        }
                        ...
                    }
                    ...
                }
            }
        }
    }

And then at Profile.qml you can easily get attached StackView property:

    Pane {
        id: profile
        ...
        Button {
            ...
            text: "Delete"
            onClicked: {
                let modeldata = profile.StackView.view.modeldata; // Accessing StackView property via attached properties
                if (modeldata !== null)
                {
                    user_model.removeRow(modledata.index);
                }
                ...
            }
        }
    }

In this case you do not need workaround with helper row. Also if you need some objects like your helper - better way is to use QtObject rather than visual 'invisible' object.
