Rectangle covering Page header?
Solved
QML and Qt Quick

Hi,
I'm making a custom modal dialog widget. The normal Dialog won't work because we don't want the title-bar and we want more control over the look and feel. My screen is a Page with a header, some content, and then a Rectangle that is visible: false, color: "#85000000", z: 80, anchors.fill: parent, and mouse area to trap clicks. The modal behavior is working but I can't get the rectangle to cover the Page's header. Is there a way to get a Rectangle to cover the Page's header?
Thanks,

@christofer That is because the Rectangle is parented to the content area.
either you can create your own custom Popup instead of the Rectangle
or
set the Rectangle's parent as
parent: Overlay.overlay
Ref: Overlay
Overlay provides a layer for popups, ensuring that popups are displayed above other content and that the background is dimmed when a modal or dimmed popup is visible. The overlay is an ordinary Item that covers the entire window. It can be used as a visual parent to position a popup in scene coordinates.
