SplitView.. You're kiddin! Why didn't i see that component before? -_- Yes, that is obviously what i was searching for. It wasn't there when i was last looking for something like that which was before Qt 5.1 was released. But i am a bit surprised that [1] doesn't make a mention of it. The SplitView component seems to be using the Layout stuff. Oh well, going to play with that and see if it fills my SplitView needs :) [1] http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtquick-layouts-qmlmodule.html > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: interest-bounces+jan-arve.saether=digia....@qt-project.org >> [mailto:interest-bounces+jan-arve.saether=digia....@qt-project.org] On >> Behalf Of Mark Gaiser >> Sent: 27. februar 2014 03:01 >> To: Qt Interest >> Subject: [Interest] Row(Layout), use spacing as resize handle.
