ScrollView.verticalScrollBarPolicy not working on Qt 5.4?

[Archie888]

Hi, I am trying to keep the vertical scrollbar always on the screen in my ScrollView for clarity. I was hoping that the property verticalScrollBarPolicy with the value Qt.ScrollBarAlwaysOn could accomplish this. I'm afraid the result is the same as with Qt.ScrollBarAsNeeded: the scroll bar will appear only when doing some flicking action on the view, with which I mean using the mouse scroll or a touch pad for instance on desktop.

I am using Qt 5.4.

Any tips, other than installing latest Qt? Is this a bug?

Thanks,

Hi! This works for me with Qt 5.6.0:

import QtQuick 2.5
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import QtQuick.Controls 1.4

Window {
    visible: true
    width: 1000
    height: 600

    ScrollView {
        anchors.fill: parent
        verticalScrollBarPolicy: Qt.ScrollBarAlwaysOn
        Image { source: "file:///home/pw/img.jpg" }
    }

}
