Detailed Description
Overlay provides a layer for popups, ensuring that popups are displayed above other content and that the background is dimmed when a modal or dimmed popup is visible.
The overlay is an ordinary Item that covers the entire window. It can be used as a visual parent to position a popup in scene coordinates.
The following example uses the attached Overlay.overlay property to position a popup in the center of the window, despite the position of the button that opens the popup:
Button { onClicked: popup.open() Popup { id: popup parent: Overlay.overlay x: Math.round((parent.width - width) / 2) y: Math.round((parent.height - height) / 2) width: 100 height: 100 } }
See also ApplicationWindow.
