[Interest] Why is this not working? Assign direct to QML (through setContextProperty) works, as function doesn't.

Hi Alan,

Thank you for your reply.
I do wonder though, isn't qmlRegisterType for registering custom QML
elements? Since that's not what i'm trying to do. I only try to make
an object usable in QML. Something that works if i send it to QML
directly using setContextProperty but doesn't work if i send a class
and call a function with the object i want (the function pathModel()
in the example from my first post.
