Printing from QtQuick.Controls

[anda_skoa]

Yes, there is no print dialog yet for QtQuick.Controls.

For now you have to call a method or slot on an exposed C++ object and let it handle the widget based dialog.

Not sure why you would want to render controls onto a printer though, you wouldn't do that with widget's either.

Well I would like to print some hires QtQuick output to a printer, because QtQuick can do some nice rendering in an easy way. QtWebkit has gone away (Qt-5.6) and QWebengine is all asynchronous, so you never know, when the rendering is finished (only the DOM loading, which happens some undefined time before the rendering finishes).

Rendering QtQuick at a custom resolution into something invisible, which can render itself into a QPainter or can give me a QImage would be great!

You could try using a QQuickWidget to load the scene and using its render() method to draw into a painter.
Or QQuickWindow::grabWindow() to get an image of the window's content.
Or QQuickWindow::setRenderTarget() to render into a frame buffer object and converting that to an image.
