[SOLVED] Children's opacity greater than parent's?

Fenix Voltres

Is it possible?
I need to display console with opacity let's say 0.5 with text on it having 1.0, is it possible?

When this property is set, the specified opacity is also applied individually to child items. In almost all cases this is what you want, but in some cases it may produce undesired results.

but it doesn't say what to do in that particular 'some cases'...

My first thought would be to not make the opaque item a child of the transparent one. Instead fake it by positioning it using anchors relative to the semi-transparent item.

@
Item {
Rect {
id: myRect
opacity: 0.5
}

Text {
    anchors.centerIn: myRect
    text: "I am opaque text"
}

}
