[SOLVED] QML ScreenSaver element in Qt 5.x?

[AlterX]

I am trying to search for...it's difficult, many times official documentation is very lacking!

Where does this example work on?
"scrensaver":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtmultimedia-video-qmlvideo-qml-qmlvideo-disablescreensaver-qml.html

I am trying to achieve this on my Qt 5.x project...nothing of those described exist!

Hi,

The ScreenSaver type is from the old Qt Mobility collection:

• http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qt-mobility/systeminfo.html
• http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qt-mobility/qml-screensaver.html

The Qt System Info module is not yet polished enough to be released with Qt 5, unfortunately. The developers who are working porting Qt Mobility to Qt 5 seem to be currently focusing on the Qt Location module.

Ok, but this example spoke about Qt 5.x and QtQuick2, so Qt is going bad and moreover documentation is wrong bringing us to crazy!
That is not Qt I knew...

Compass doesn't work, camera display/recording doesn't work, debug doesn't work, touch is not correct in custom object...that's a very shame...My softair app has been stuck since last year due to compass lack and many many other not working things respect to Nokia Qt version!

Thanks for bringing up this issue; I've submitted a patch for it: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,84991

If you find any more issues, please report them to https://bugreports.qt-project.org so that they can be fixed.

Compass/camera/debug/touch should work though. What platform are you developing for? Have you asked for help with those problems? Have you tried "Qt 5.3":http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2014/05/08/qt-5-3-release-candidate-available/?

Hi, with old version I was speaking about Qt 4.7 Meego Harmattan...so it is not suitable for android and iOS. Compass is not supported yet and this is a little bit stupid since is a core component on mobile.

This user used QMagnetometer (which is supported on Android and iOS) to create a custom compass: http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/40353

As for your other issues, I recommend starting new threads to ask for assistance.

I have built a native Qt compass with the same interface of QCompass, using QAccelerometer and QMagnetometer...maybe this code could be useful for Qt sensors team.
Then I have extended my main activity to put wakeup of display.

Thanks
