I can't comment on your problem with VisualItemModel, but an alternative way to approach your requirement (if I understood it correctly) would be to use a Loader to implement factory pattern. Something like this: ListView { model: dataModel delegate: Loader { source: if (itemType == 0) "BookDelegate.qml" else if (itemType == 1) "SongDelegate.qml" else "MovieDelegate.qml" } } ListModel { id: dataModel ListElement { itemType: 0 author: "William Shakespeare" title: "There's something wrong in the land of Denmark" pageCount: 654 } ListElement { itemType: 1 performer: "Michael Jackson" album: "Thriller" songTitle: "Beat it" } ListElement { itemType: 2 movieTitle: "Raiders of the Lost Ark" director: "Steven Spielberg" } } I doubt using the Loader to choose the delegate gives you too much overhead unless the expression used to choose the delegate becomes really complex. cheers, Juha _______________________________________________ Qt-qml mailing list Qt-qml@qt.nokia.com http://lists.qt.nokia.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-qml
