Realize that QML properties are Q_PROPERTY, with an onPROPERTYChanged emit event. In this way, when parent.width changes, it fires off the event and any variable connected with a binding (explicitly or implicitly) is recalculated.

Also, realize that you can declare your own properties in QML:

Rectangle {
    property int verticalDivisor: 15

    Rectangle { 
      height: parent.height / verticalDivisor
    }

   onVerticalDivisorChanged: console.log("verticalDivisor:", verticalDivisor)
   Behavior on verticalDivisor { 
      NumberAnimation { ...etc...} 
   }
}

Now you can animate vertical divisor, as well as provide onVerticalDivisorChanged event handling, as shown above.
