[Qt-qml] anchors.horizontalCenter bug ?

[Eduardo Fleury]

Yep, good thing it works now.

Just a word of advice on my own way of debugging declarative interfaces that
might be handy in the future.

In situations like this one what I do is to create a semi-transparent
rectangle and anchors.fill it to the "bad-behaving" item.
In this case, I would do, inside the Text item:

Rectangle {
    anchors.fill: parent
    color: "tomato"
    opacity: 0.33
}

This would clearly show that the Text item was indeed centered but being too
big the result was not satisfactory.

BR,
Eduardo
