Why this stackview.pop not working?

[dheerendra]

It should work. Are you trying to pop before you push ? Did you confirm that you are inserting the element for sure ?

Please look at the documentation. It has working example. Comparing with the example may help.

@zhmh I fail to see you actual stackview / pop/push calls in the code you posted, so I can only guess.

But, you can't pop() the initial item, if you have set that.

@J-Hilk in button with id:button1 I used the pop (last lines) and in id: timer I used push()
I want to pop to main.qml which is my first page with ApplicationWindow{}
in main.qml where stackview is defined:

main.qml:

property alias stackView: stackView
StackView {
        id: stackView
        initialItem: main
        anchors.fill: parent
        anchors.rightMargin: -28
        anchors.bottomMargin: -19
        anchors.leftMargin: 28
        anchors.topMargin: 19

       //some code
}

@zhmh said in Why this stackview.pop not working?:

property alias stackView: stackView
StackView {
     id: stackView

This is very ugly and should ends with a binding loop issue.
I would change this into:

property alias stackView: _stackView
StackView {
    id: _stackView
...

@zhmh thats definitely the wrong approach, you shouldn't rely on global/recursive identifier lookup. Thats bound to break really soon.

give your page component pop and push signals, call those from the buttons and connect the signals in the qml file, where your Page and StackWindow instance is.

@J-Hilk I do not fully understand what you mean. Can you give an example?

[J.Hilk]

@zhmh
a bit clustered, so it fits all in one qml file. I assume your Pages are separated qml files, should work the same way.

import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQuick.Controls 2.12
import QtQuick.Window 2.12
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.12

Window {
    visible: true
    width: 500
    height: 500
    title: qsTr("Hello World")


    StackView{
        id:myStackView

        anchors.fill: parent

        initialItem: Column{
            Button{
                width: myStackView.width
                height:  50
                text: qsTr("Page1")
                onClicked: myStackView.push(page1)
            }

            Button{
                width: myStackView.width
                height:  50
                text: qsTr("Page2")
                onClicked: myStackView.push(page2)
            }
        }


        onCurrentItemChanged: if(myStackView.currentItem.popView)myStackView.currentItem.popView.connect(myStackView.pop);

    }

    Component{
        id: page1
        Page{
            id:p1
            signal popView()
            onPopView: console.log("button on page 1 clicked")
            Button {
                anchors.bottom: parent.bottom
                text: qsTr("Page 2")
                onClicked: p1.popView()
            }
        }
    }

    Component{
        id:page2
        Page{
            id:p2
            signal popView()
            onPopView: console.log("button on page 2 clicked")
            Button {
                anchors.bottom: parent.bottom
                text: qsTr("Page 1")
                onClicked: p2.popView()
            }
        }
    }
}

@KroMignon no, this is fine. https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtqml-syntax-objectattributes.html#considerations-for-property-aliases.

[zhmh]

@J-Hilk Thank you when I defining the initialItem correctly
, pop worked

Thanks for the update!
Didn't know this.
I am always a little bit paranoiac about possible binding loop issues, they are never easy to find / resolve.
