Hi @RomanoFX,

As per this document Qt Labs Controls are supposed to be used on embedded systems.

Thank you for that explanation.
However, if I want use CheckBox from the two libraries in a single QML file, it exists a way to assign the good one?

@RomanoFX You can use Alias'es using as. For eg:

import QtQuick 2.5
import QtQuick.Controls 1.4 as Desktop
import Qt.labs.controls 1.0 as Embed

Item {
    width: 200
    height: 200

    Desktop.CheckBox {
        checked: true
        text: "Desktop"
    }

    Embed.CheckBox {
        y: 50
        checked: false
        text: "Embedded"
    }
}
