    Default How to get the current date out of a Date Tumbler

    Hello All,

    I am a newbie in QML and I am trying to set the time through a Tumbler. The code for the Tumbler is
    Qt Code:
    1. import QtQuick 2.12
    2. import QtQuick.Window 2.2
    3. import QtQuick.Controls 2.12
    4.  
    5. Rectangle {
    6. width: frame.implicitWidth + 10
    7. height: frame.implicitHeight + 10
    8.  
    9. function formatText(count, modelData) {
    10. var data = count === 12 ? modelData + 1 : modelData;
    11. return data.toString().length < 2 ? "0" + data : data;
    12. }
    13.  
    14. FontMetrics {
    15. id: fontMetrics
    16. }
    17.  
    18. Component {
    19. id: delegateComponent
    20.  
    21. Label {
    22. text: formatText(Tumbler.tumbler.count, modelData)
    23. opacity: 1.0 - Math.abs(Tumbler.displacement) / (Tumbler.tumbler.visibleItemCount / 2)
    24. horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignHCenter
    25. verticalAlignment: Text.AlignVCenter
    26. font.pixelSize: fontMetrics.font.pixelSize * 1.25
    27. }
    28. }
    29.  
    30. Frame {
    31. id: frame
    32. padding: 0
    33. anchors.centerIn: parent
    34.  
    35. Row {
    36. id: row
    37.  
    38. Tumbler {
    39. id: hoursTumbler
    40. model: 12
    41. delegate: delegateComponent
    42. }
    43.  
    44. Tumbler {
    45. id: minutesTumbler
    46. model: 60
    47. delegate: delegateComponent
    48. }
    49.  
    50. Tumbler {
    51. id: amPmTumbler
    52. model: ["AM", "PM"]
    53. delegate: delegateComponent
    54. }
    55. }
    56. }
    57. }

    I am calling the time tumbler from another page

    63. var hour = timeTumbler.currentIndex;
    64. mainLoader.source = 'Dashboard_2.qml';
    65. }
    66. }

    92. }
    93.  
    94. }

    When I press on the Done button I would like to get the hour from the hour column of the tumbler but I don't get anything. I am using the id : timeTumbler to access it but how can I get to the hours column and retrieve the index ?

    The internal object of TimeTumbler are not directly addressable from outside, but you can "forward" those properties that you need.

    Qt Code:
    1. Rectangle {
    2. property alias hoursIndex: hoursTumbler.currentIndex
    3.  
    4. Tumbler {
    5. id: hoursTumbler
    6. }
    7. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    or maybe even more appropriate the hour value
    Qt Code:
    1. Rectangle {
    2. readonly property int hours: hoursTumbler.currentIndex + 1
    3.  
    4. Tumbler {
    5. id: hoursTumbler
    6. }
    7. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Cheers,
