Some more changes:

QDeclarativeSettingsPlugin making QSettings API accessible via QML.
platformWindow context now has a takeScreenShot() method, which uses the static QPixmap::grabWidget() method to take a screenshot and save it to the specified filename.

Example:

Code:

Page {
    id: root

    Settings {
        id: settings

        organizationName: "Me"
        applicationName: "MyApplication"
    }

    Button {
        id: button
       
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        text: "Screenshot"
        onClicked: platformWindow.takeScreenShot(settings.value("screenShotFolder", "/home/user/MyDocs/Images/") + "screenshot.png") // x, y, width, height, scaledWidth and scaledHeight can also be specified.
    }
}

First example application is a web browser with support for tabbed browsing and bookmarks:

Pretty basic atm, but I'll add some more features later.

When referencing the Menu directly (and not as part of pageStackWindow), I get the following error. I tried to dig down to the PopUp element but it doesn't seem to inherit or otherwise use dialog.

Code:

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: DialogStatus
                        ScriptAction { script: root.status = DialogStatus.Open }

what can I do to get over that?

Menu implementation as follows

Code:

    Menu{
        id: menu
        MenuLayout{
            Button{ text: "adasd"}
        }
    }

    }

The MenuLayout should be assigned to the tools property of the Menu:

Code:

    Menu{
        id: menu
        tools: MenuLayout{
            Button{ text: "adasd"}
        }
    }

Great job. Could anyone please add a short how-to on the compilation?

I have tried standard qmake && make, but it complains about 'QSystemDeviceInfo' missing.
The reason might be I try to compile it on my Desktop instead of N900, but since my Desktop is my primary development environment, it is much needed. Thank you.

You need to install qtmobility first before you can compile Hildon Qt Components.

Thank you, that was it - therefore I made a Chakra CCR package here: http://chakra-linux.org/ccr/packages.php?ID=5170 (for anyone interested).

I am just not sure about the licensing...

EDIT: It builds fine, but fails to run with:

Code:

plugin cannot be loaded for module "org.hildon.components": Cannot load library /usr/lib/qt/imports/org/hildon/components/libhildonplugin.so: (/usr/lib/qt/imports/org/hildon/components/libhildonplugin.so: undefined symbol: _ZNK20QDeclarativeSettings10metaObjectEv) 
     import org.hildon.components 0.1

Yep, I've experienced that runtime error as well. I've created a pull request for it: https://github.com/marx1an/qt-components-hildon/pull/1

Note that you'll have to do some further adoptions of the code to load the images from the right places in the desktop version. Moreover, you also need to install the Hildon icons and theme images somewhere in the system, otherwise you'll get complaints at runtime that these can't be found.

I don't know if this is related to hildon-components or the browser itself but I have noticed QML-browser doesn't use system fonts for most of it's text.

Also from some testing it seems to ignore some html meta tags that provide mobile skins of websites, opting to only show the desktop version.

Is there plan for further work on QML-browser?
