Directory Listing with QML

[cnxsoft]

I'm trying to list the content of a directory (of picture files) and store it in an array in order to display the pictures in a slideshow using QML.

I've tried to use ListView for that:

@import QtQuick 1.0
import Qt.labs.folderlistmodel 1.0

Rectangle {
ListView {
width: 0; height: 0

     FolderListModel {
         id: folderModel
         folder: "file:///C:/QtProj/PigitalSignage/qml/PigitalSignage/video"
         nameFilters: ["*.*"]
     }

     Component {
         id: fileDelegate
         Text {
             text: fileName
             onTextChanged: {
                 console.debug("Filename:-" + fileName + "-")
             }
         }
     }
     model: folderModel
     delegate: fileDelegate
}

}@

But this is not ideal since it will only show files that are displayed in the window, I could give a large number of height but that does seem too good.

I could also not find a way to create a (changeable) array with QML. I tried variant, but it seems read-only.

Is there a way to do that with QML, or do I need to work something out in C++?

As i understand you need a scrollable list view am i right?

Sorry for not being clear. I don't need to show the file list. I would just need to display each picture for X seconds.

This may be totally off-base but you could try something like this:

@
onCompleted: // start timer

onTimerElapsed: // load another one, ie: change source
@

I haven't tried it, but it seems like a good idea, =D, hope this helps
