\title Data Binding in QML
@@ -5,17 +46,17 @@
Data binding provides a declarative way of specifying the data associated with objects, as well as the relationship between data of different objects. For example, you could bind the text of a label to the value of a slider: as the value of the slider changed, the label would be automatically updated with the new value.
-Bindings are created in QML when an expression is assigned to a property. For example, the following produces two rectangles of equal size (\c Rect2 is bound to the size of \c Rect1):
+Bindings are created in QML when an expression is assigned to a property. For example, the following produces two rectangles of equal size (\c rect2 is bound to the size of \c rect1):
\code
-Rectangle { id: Rect1; width: 100; height: 100 }
-Rectangle { id: Rect2; width: Rect1.width; height: Rect1.height }
+Rectangle { id: rect1; width: 100; height: 100 }
+Rectangle { id: rect2; width: rect1.width; height: rect1.height }
\endcode
There is also a special \l Binding element, which is typically used to bind from the UI to the underlying UI model (see \l {Passing Data Between C++ and QML} for an example of this). The bindings above could be expressed using the \l Binding element as:
\code
-Binding { target: Rect2; property: "width"; value: Rect1.width }
-Binding { target: Rect2; property: "height"; value: Rect1.height }
+Binding { target: rect2; property: "width"; value: rect1.width }
+Binding { target: rect2; property: "height"; value: rect1.height }
\endcode
In addition to binding directly to a property, you can also bind to the results of expressions involving properties. For example:
