@
import QtQuick 2.1
import QtQuick.Controls 1.0

ApplicationWindow {
id: root
visible: true
width: 640
height: 480
title: qsTr("Hello World")

menuBar: MenuBar {
    Menu {
        title: qsTr("File")
        MenuItem {
            text: qsTr("Exit")
            onTriggered: Qt.quit();
        }
    }
}

Text {
    id: mytext
    text: qsTr("Hello World")
    anchors.centerIn: parent
}

Component.onCompleted: {
    //var textjs = {"mytext":"text`"}
    console.log(JSON.stringify(mytext))
}

}

Hi,

Do you get any Error ? Which Qt version are you using ?

Vincent007

Sorry, please try my updated post.

In this case console.log puts
@
QQuickText(0x289b6b0)
@

which i think is proper.
What do you desire as output ?
You can assign an objectName to an Element and to get back you can use the same property in console.log

Which Qt version and OS are you using?
I use Windows 7 64 bits and Qt 5.3.0 VC 2013 64bits.
My result is
"qrc:///qml/main.qml:37: TypeError: Type error"

I use Qt 5.3.1, Ubuntu 14.04.
Sorry i didn't mention earlier, i did this:
@
console.log(mytext)
@

and not stringify thing. So it prints what kind of C++ object it is.

Is there an simple way to print all properties of a QML object?

I think you can use Qt's "Meta Object System":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/metaobjects.html to get functions, properties etc..
