How do I get an editable Combobox with Controls 2?

refaQtor

In QtQuick 1.4, the ComboBox had an editable property, but the 2.0 version doesn't. Is there some new way to handle this in 2.0 that I'm overlooking? If I try to "import QtQuick 1.4 as old" (for example) the file no longer is editable with the graphical viewer.

@refaQtor ComboBox in QQC2 doesnot have this functionality yet.

@p3c0 thanks for pointing out the ticket. I'll watch that to see when Controls 2 is ready to use. I'll take my whole app back to 1.4, if I can't manage to mix the two versions.

Editable ComboBox is nearly done. The feature freeze of Qt 5.8 was already a good while ago and the beta was already released. Therefore editable ComboBox won't make it there, unfortunately, but it will be available in the next release after that - Qt Quick Controls 2.2 in Qt 5.9.
