[Interest] ApplicationWindow overlay item opacity aspects

[Mitch Curtis]

Overlay sets opacity, so it is being overridden:

http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtquickcontrols2.git/tree/src/quicktemplates2/qquickoverlay.cpp#n59

Maybe we could give control of animating visibility changes to the user somehow, so that the animation would be done in the modal delegate? The current behaviour should probably be documented though.

Hi,

Trying to change modal popups dim color using overlay property of ApplicationWindow, I wonder why opacity with this one not works (dim background is solid black):

    overlay.modal: Rectangle {
        color: "black"
        opacity: 0.2
    }

Only this one works:

    overlay.modal: Rectangle {
        color: "#33000000" //opacitiy 0.2
    }

Is it a bug or a feature of overlay z-position?
Thanks in advance for explanations.
