QML Button invisible on some systems

Oliver Schwarz

I have a weird behavior of my QML Button.

I'm developing on a Redhat 7/VM machine via SSH/X11. On my system the dialog displays the buttons correctly. On the customer system, also RH7/VM but accessing via Spice protocol the button is not visible. Clicking on it performs the action that is defined.

My suspicion is that it has something todo with the access of the machines (X11 vs. SPICE the default RH Remote Viewer).

Rectangle {
   GridLayout {
      id: grid
      columns: 2
      anchors.top: toolbar.bottom
      anchors.left: parent.left
      anchors.right: parent.right
      anchors.bottom: parent.bottom
      Rectangle {
         id: leftTools
         Layout.alignment: Qt.AlignLeft | Qt.AlignTop
         width: 100
         color: "black"
         ...
         Button {
            id: layoutOpen
            anchors.top: layoutRectangle1.bottom
            text: "Open Layouts"
            
            MouseArea {
                anchors.fill: parent
                onClicked: {
                    openLayoutDialog.open()
                }
            }
         ....
        }
   }
}

I tried several properties of the button (visible, opacity, color, ...) but nothing seemed to work. Does anyone has experienced the same?

Ok. Finally I managed to workaround the behavior.

Thanks to a user that gave me the tip via PM. I replaced the Button by a Rectangle with MouseArea.
