Move rectangle with arrow keys

neda

How would I use the arrow keys to move rectangle?

Rectangle {
        id:point
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        width: 20
        height: 20

        opacity: 0.2

        MouseArea {
            anchors.fill: parent
            drag.target: root
            onPositionChanged: {
                if(drag.active) {
                    dragged()
                }
            }

            
        }
Keys.onPressed: {
               if (event.key == Qt.Key_Left) {
                    console.log("move left");
                    event.accepted = true;
                    point.x-=1;
                }
            }
    }

@neda AFAIK an anchored Item will not move unless you free it.

Rectangle {
        id:point
        anchors.centerIn: parent // <- remove this
        width: 20
        ...

I don't understand what you are trying to do inside canvas. But for a test I tried the rest of the code. It works by applying the above said changes. It will move the first Item.
