    This is an example:
    @Rectangle {
    width: 800
    height: 600
    Rectangle {
    id: titlebar
    width: parent.width
    height: 50
    color: "#0000ff"
    }
    }@

    It loaded by QDeclarativeView in a subclass of QMainWindow, the window without default titlebar.

    How to implement the TitleBar with drag-move function?

      So you understand your qml view is in a QMainWindow based class. If you want to drag and move your window, it's actually need moving your mainWindow. So the way to do this is:

      1. Have a mouseArea in your titlebar
      2. When pressed and mousePositionChanged, emit the a signal to your mainWindow, and let your mainWindow to handle the moving staff.

      Btw, what's the app target for? Symbian ?Desktop?

          Or you can handle mousePositionChanged on QML side.
          @QmlApplicationViewer viewer;
          ...
          viewer.rootContext()->setContextProperty("mainwindow", &viewer);@

          @TitleBar { id: titleBar; width: parent.width; height: 40; opacity: 0.9
          MouseArea {
          id: mouseRegion
          anchors.fill: parent;
          property variant clickPos: "1,1"
          onPressed: {
          clickPos = Qt.point(mouse.x,mouse.y)
          }
          onPositionChanged: {
          var delta = Qt.point(mouse.x-clickPos.x, mouse.y-clickPos.y)
          mainwindow.pos = Qt.point(mainwindow.pos.x+delta.x,
          mainwindow.pos.y+delta.y)
          //console.log(mouse.x-clickPos.x,mouse.y-clickPos.y)
          }
          }
          }@
