Drag and Drop of underlying Mousearea
-
HI,
I want to be able when doing a PressAndHold on a TextEdit to be able to drag its parent mousearea. To enter new text I would do a double click to focus on TextEdit.
I thought I could do it using propagateComposedEvents.
Using it I can detect a click of the top mousearea in the parent mousearea but I can not drag the parent mousearea itself.
Here is a very simplified code of what I tryed:Window { visible: true width: 640 height: 480 Rectangle { id: parentRectangle height: 200 width: 400 color: "red" Drag.active: parentRectangleMousearea.drag.active Drag.hotSpot.x: 10 Drag.hotSpot.y: 10 MouseArea { id: parentRectangleMousearea anchors.fill: parent onClicked: console.log("Red parent rectangle clicked.") drag.target: parentRectangle } Rectangle { id: childRectangle height: 100 width: 200 color: "blue" MouseArea { id: childRectangleMousearea anchors.fill: parent propagateComposedEvents: true onClicked: { console.log("Blue child rectangle clicked.") mouse.accepted = false } } } } }
Clicking on the red rectangle shows "Red parent rectangle clicked" in the console.
Clicking on the red rectangle shows "Red parent rectangle clicked" and "Blue parent rectangle clicked" in the console. So the propagation seems to work.
I can also drag the red rectangle when I press and hold the red rectangle.
But I can not drag the red rectangle when I press and hold the blue rectangle.Do someone has an idea how I could achieve by and press and hold on a textedit to drag its underlying element and focus on the textedit if I double click.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Emmanuel
