Qt 6: Dialog confusion
-
Man oh man I confess I spent a lot of time flailing over the use of Dialogs in Qt 6. There is
Qt Quick Controls -> QML Types -> Dialog - but there is also Qt Quick Dialogs -> QML Types -> Dialog - is anyone else confused by this naming? Why are there two Dialog types? Is one preferred over the other? Is one of them deprecated?
Thanks! -
Many types exist in Quick as well as Quick Controls. Their names are usually different, but in this case the names are identical. I agree that this is confusing at first glance,
Neither of them is deprecated.Quick has been developed as a very lean approach to embedded systems with limitations on memory, CPU power and disk space.
Quick controls provide more features and are better suited for complex applications.
