Hi Pertti, Maybe you've already found a solution to your problem. If not, I think your should look into the posibility of re-parenting the item you click on, out of the view before you move it. You can do this by giving the item a new state and in it define a ParentChange. If this upsets the grid you can make the grid item double-layered and only reparent the inner layer while the grid still manages the outer.
Hope this helps.

I have an application with two views. In the first view, there are a number of items displayed in a GridView. In the second view there is just one item with some text beside it. What I am trying to accomplish is a smooth transition between two views. When an item is clicked in the first view, the selected item should slide to the left, and the rest of the items should fade away. The attached files contain a minimal implementation I have come up with. The only problem is that I cannot figure out how to start the animation of the selected item in the correct place, as indicated in the onClicked handler in the code. In other words, I need to find the coordinates of the selected item in the application's coordinate system. It seems that Item::mapToItem() should do the job, but I have not found a way to use it from QML without going via C++. It is certainly possible that there is a much better way to accomplish the same effect in QML. If so, please show me the error in my ways. -- Pertti _______________________________________________ Qt-qml mailing list Qt-qml@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-qml
