[Interest] Triggering update on custom QQuickItem

[Nuno Santos]

Hi,

For a very long time I’ve always used a Timer inside the custom implementation of a QQuickItem to trigger update and refresh what I was using.

Recently I’ve started to replace this for a connection with QQuickWindow (accessible from QQuickItem) beforeRendering signal to trigger this animations.

With the latest versions of Qt 6.7.2 I’ve started to see a new element called FrameAnimation to trigger these updates.

I would prefer to keep the update logic inside the custom QQuickItem implementation.

What is the recommendation for such cases?

Can someone please advise?

Thanks!

Regards,

Nuno
