Hmm, Jolla uses Source Sans Pro as far as I know. Maybe it helps if you are setting manually the font in your cover.
But it's interessting, maybe a bug? Gabriel. -- Von meinem Nokia N9 gesendet Tigre-Bleu schrieb am 30.11.13 00:41: Well, using the second case with no typo works but with this strange font thing. See attached picture: - The top cover is while using cover: Qt.resolvedUrl("cover/CoverPage.qml") - The bottom one is while using cover: CoverPage {id: myCoverPage} Both are using correctly Theme.padding and Theme.xxxColor. However the font is not the same...

Hello, In first case your Cover is not an instance, instead it's created directly from File, that means the function is not known. The second case should work, if you change onUpdated to onUpdated(myCoverPage.myFunction()) Because at the moment you don't use the id's name! Cheers Gabriel. -- Von meinem Nokia N9 gesendet Tigre-Bleu schrieb am 30.11.13 00:09: Hi, While that solution below works perfectly fine to get data from the appWindow to the cover, I am facing an issue trying to do the opposite. Let's explain. My AppWindow looks like this: ApplicationWindow { MyModel { ... onUpdated(cover.myFunction()) } cover: Qt.resolvedUrl("cover/CoverPage.qml") ... } in CoverPage.qml I have the following: CoverBackground { ... myFunction(){ ... } } I am unable to execute myFunction for whatever reason I don't understand. I also tried a few things like: import "cover' MyModel { ... onUpdated(coverPage.myFunction()) } cover: CoverPage {id: myCoverPage} Weird that in that case the font used by the cover is not the regular Sailfish font... It is the same to access properties from the cover. How is it supposed to work?

If you declare all your pages in ApplicationWindow like: ApplicationWindow { id: appWindow cover: Qt.resolvedUrl("CoverPage.qml") MainPage { id: mainPage } SecondPage { id: secondPage } } then you can use pages global properties and functions from CoverPage: CoverBackground { id: cover ...

Your solution is a good idea, and could work for some values (main page and first cover) - thanks for that! :), but not all. Because I can pass them only in the moment I instantiate them. So I have to instantiate all of them in the ApplicationWindow. This is possible, but I guess due to the SailfishOS glass effect they appear stacked. So I see other files (pages/cover), even if they are not set as the PageStack first page or Cover. Maybe it's possible to workaround with opacity and checking for PageStatus, but seems not to be the cleanest solution. And the other side is, the console output/examples said, it's better to create them just in the moment you really need them. So I also tried, var page = Qt.createComponent("qml/file"), so I can store a page/cover in a variable and push that on the PageStack, but I can't reach the property aliases. Thanks. Gabriel.

You can try using app global object ids or javascript files with .pragma library and gloval [to them] variables or inject global objects from C++ via setContextProperty(). The way I like doing it is to keep shared object in main.qml and pass it to pages/covers at the moment of instantiation the following way: ======== ApplicationWindow { id: app property string sharedValue: "whatever you want to share to cover" initialPage: Component { MainPage { torch: app.sharedValue } } cover: Component { CoverPage { torch: app.sharedValue } } } ======== I hope if helps. Cheers, Artem.

My case: On the main page (MainPage.qml) you can select some options and search depending on the selected options. My main cover shows the selected options if minimized, so I can't just create it with Qt.resolvedUrl("path/to/maincover.qml"), because I'm "talking" to the cover with via property aliases. So I'm creating this cover directly as an instance in ApplicationWindow. After the search a ListView shows the results from a model and I created another cover to switch between the results with CoverAction (show next/previous) - it takes the data from the model. But also shows some information from main page - via property alias. So the point is: to fill the cover pages with the dynamic data I can't create them with Qt.resolvedUrl("path/to/cover.qml"), or push("mypage.qml") because I need property aliases to set the information on the covers. But in the most examples and also the console output tells me, that it is not clever to create instances in the ApplicationWindow part. So what is best practice? Do I miss something? Thank you very much in advance.
