Thank you Andrey,
the Flickable trick should do, and I was thinking about those lines as
well, although the details are important, and you just saved me a few
hours of trial and errors.
I am not completely happy about it, since this will work only on the
top part of the screen, but at least the application will keep usable.
About the second point, I agree that is an option... and I will use it
of course, but this is not an uncommon situation, I guess, so it would
be better to have a solution at the silica toolkit level, instead of
having appliations implement their own or copy over qml libraries.
So maybe a SectionScroller, or SectionGrid (or both! Not all models
would work well with the alpha grid as addressbooks) should be
available for applications to use in the future.
Best regards,
Luciano
