Wow. Thank you. It works.
It was the setparent that made it work. That is, instead of placing it into
the Instantiation of the the entity class.
I'm using 5.7rc on Linux Kubuntu
Pierre
// parent is the root entity
Qt3DCore::QEntity * pLightEntity = new Qt3DCore::QEntity(); // hang off of root
Qt3DRender::QPointLight * pQPointLight = new Qt3DRender::QPointLight();
Qt3DCore::QTransform * pLightQTransform = new Qt3DCore::QTransform();
pLightQTransform->setTranslation(QVector3D(0,0,300));
LightEntity->addComponent(pLightQTransform);
pLightEntity->addComponent(pQPointLight);
pLightEntity->setParent(this); <<<< setting the parent last and this
way made it work. Thanks again
