An inner MouseArea gets the mouse events first. I would like to "see" these events, so as to set various properties, but not affect them. I would like the mouse events to propagate to any parent MouseArea.
consider this code. I would like clicking on the blue square to see "blue pressed" and "blue released" as well as passing to "parent pressed" and "parent released".
If i accept the event, the parent does not get it. if i don't accept pressed, then i do not see released.
import QtQuick 2.7import QtQuick.Controls 1.4ApplicationWindow{ visible: true width: 800 height: 1024 Rectangle { anchors.fill: parent color: "yellow" MouseArea { // i want these to happen even when mouse events are in the // blue square anchors.fill: parent onPressed: console.log("parent pressed"); onReleased: console.log("parent released"); } Rectangle { x: 100 y: 100 width: 100 height: 100 color: "blue" // i would like to "see" events, but not affect them // i want all mouse events to pass to parent, as if i am not here. // however, not accepting "pressed" means i don't see "released" MouseArea { anchors.fill: parent onPressed: { console.log("blue pressed"); mouse.accepted = false } onReleased: { console.log("blue released"); mouse.accepted = false } } } }}ideas welcome. thanks,
