Dynamic creation of list<transform>

I am attempting to dynamically create a list<Transform> object in javascript in order to set a transform property.

This is the minimum compilable example I know how to make at the moment.

Code:

---

import QtQuick 2.5
import QtQuick.Controls 1.4
 
ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
 
    Component.onCompleted: {
        console.log("Trying to create a transform list");
        var newObject = Qt.createQmlObject(
            'import QtQuick 2.5; [ Scale { xScale: 1; yScale: 1 } ]',
            this,
            'newObject');
    }
}

---

It gives the error...

Code:

---

qrc:/main.qml:12: Error: Qt.createQmlObject(): failed to create object: 
    qrc:/newObject:1:29: Expected token `,'
    qrc:/newObject:1:40: Expected token `}'

---

Where am I stuck?

At some point, I'm going to need to append to this list, preferably in QML context and not javascript.
Is the following going to work? Will this nest a list in a list or will it extend the original list?

Code:

---

transform: [ existingTransformList, Translate { x: 5, y: 5} ]

The string you pass to createQmlObject() doesn't look like it is valid QML.
Especially the [] brackets seem off, the only valid "top level" tokens are imports and a single Element type.
Have you tried putting it into a separate QML file and load it with qmlscene?

That looks to me like creating a list that has two values.
If "existingTransformList" is a list itself, then the two type are probably not compatible.
