+\title Advanced Tutorial 1 - Creating the Game Canvas and Blocks
+
+The first step is to create the items in your application. In Same Game we have a main game screen and the blocks that populate it.
+
+\image declarative-adv-tutorial1.png
+
+Here is the QML code for the basic elements. The game window:
+
+\snippet declarative/tutorials/samegame/samegame1/samegame.qml 0
+
+This gives you a basic game window, with room for the game canvas. A new game
+button and room to display the score. The one thing you may not recognize here
+is the \l SystemPalette item. This item provides access to the Qt system palette
+and is used to make the button look more like a system button (for exact native
+feel you would use a \l QPushButton). Since we want a fully QML button, and QML does
+not include a button, we had to write our own. Below is the code which we wrote to do this:
+
+\snippet declarative/tutorials/samegame/samegame1/Button.qml 0
+
+Note that this Button component was written to be fairly generic, in case we
+want to use a similarly styled button later.
+
+And here is a simple block:
+
+\snippet declarative/tutorials/samegame/samegame1/Block.qml 0
+
+Since it doesn't do anything yet it's very simple, just an image. As the
+tutorial progresses and the block starts doing things the file will become
+more than just an image. Note that we've set the image to be the size of the itm.
+This will be used later, when we dynamically create and size the block items the image will be scaled automatically
+to the correct size.
+
+You should be familiar with all that goes on in these files so far. This is a
+very basic start and doesn't move at all - next we will populate the game canvas
+with some blocks.
