QML PageStackWindow Element

Default window for all MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan applications More...

Inherits Window

Inherited by ApplicationWindow.

This element was introduced in qt-components 4.7.

Properties

Detailed Description

Applications are constructed using the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan-specific PageStackWindow that brings the page navigation, toolbar, statusbar and platform common look and feel.

The developer achieves all the functionality of the PageStackWindow by separately using elements and placing them inside the Window element. However, it is recomended to use the PageStackWindow so that correct platform UI is achieved.

 import QtQuick 1.1
 import com.nokia.meego 1.1

 PageStackWindow {
     showStatusBar: false
     initialPage: MainPage { }
 }

A good example how PageStackWindow is used is found from the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan example QmlComponentGallery or the Simple tutorial application that is found from front page of API documentation.

Note that the PageStackWindow as it is now defined is a MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan-specific element.
