Unsolved positioning with layouts revisited
-
Hi all -
(Similar but not identical to another post I made a few weeks back.)
I'm trying to use layouts, but they seem to interfere with various attempts to position/contain items within them. For example, This code:
ColumnLayout { width: root.width * 0.8 x: (parent.width - width) / 2 y: 40 Repeater { RunSynthStepSummary { ...
RunSynthStepSummary.qml:
ColumnLayout { id: root width: parent.width // Item { // height: parent.height // width: parent.width Text { Layout.topMargin: 10 width: root.width wrapMode: Text.WordWrap text: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut augue elit, " + "pharetra dignissim nisi ac, vulputate lobortis turpis. " }
produces this:
As you can see, the text isn't wrapping.
Question 1: why isn't the text wrapping? I believe I have all the necessary width settings.
If I uncomment the "Item" around the Text, I get this:
So, I'm getting the wrapping I want, but now I somehow need to properly set the height property of the containing ColumnLayout (I think).Question 2: how do I do this?
Thanks...
