1st Qt Quick - Porgram01

Papa

I have this code

import QtQuick 2.5

Rectangle {
    property alias mouseArea: mouseArea

    width: 500
    height: 400

    MouseArea {
        id: mouseArea

        anchors.fill: parent
    }

    Text {
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        text: "Click me"
        horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignHCenter
    }
}

I expected that as the variable 'width' and 'height' are modify, the windows would increase/decrease in size accordingly, but the window display is always the same size. How can I change this program-behavior?

Thanks

Hi,

What do you mean by always the same size ?

Not quite sure what you wanted to do.
Do you want the mouse area to scale as you resize your window?

Papa

OK, the generic window created by the default Qt Quick application, when creating from New Project->Quick Application->Choose...., has a certain size, I want to change the size of that window, better yet, I would like to display that window taking the full size of the screen.
I don't think I have to provide any code; since all one has to do is create a new project to see the generic window created and, thus, the code.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi
It depends on what you have.

maybe just ask qmlviewer to do it?
qmlviewer -fullscreen -frameless file.qml

qmlviewer

Thanks for the advice, however, after reading this:
The QML Viewer is a tool for testing and developing QML applications. It is not intended for use in a production environment and should not be used for the deployment of QML applications. In those cases, the QML runtime should be invoked from a Qt application instead; see Qt Declarative UI Runtime for more information

I think I am going to pass on the advice.

mrjj

well for deployment , you must use some of the
other methods mentioned in the link.

"I have this code" didn't sound like you were about to ship :)

So it also depends on you already have a c++ loader or not.
or want or not.

Hi

In your main.cpp file you should have something like

QQuickView view;
   ....
    view.show(); // change this line to 
    view.showMaximized(); // or to
    view.showFullScreen();
