Qml SelectionDialog and qsTr

[pixsta]

Hi,

I work with a Qt Components selection dialog:

SelectionDialog {
	titleText: qsTr("Title text")
	selectedIndex: 2
	model: ListModel {
		ListElement { name: "A" }
		ListElement { name: "B" }
		ListElement { name: "C" }
	}
	onAccepted: fncDoSomething(selectedIndex);
}

Now for internationalization I need to translate the ListElement texts, (A, B, C). I already found a workaround for ListBox which uses a Javascript function [1] but this does not work with the selection dialog.

[Edit]: I know that I can manually feed a list model from C++ and use tr() there but I would prefer to directly do the translation in Qml.

How can I translate these ListElement entries?

Hi pixta

Can you have localized versions of you component and use it with loader ? For example : ListModel in your case is defined in a separate file where strings are localized and localization variant is selected on component construction by some criteria (see pseudo-code below). I believe that should work

// client code

Loader { id: loader }

Component.onComplete(){
         var model = "ModelLangDefault.qml"
         if(language id is equal to "ID")
               model = "ModelLangID.qml";
         else if(...)...
         load.source = model;
}

SelectionDialog {
	titleText: qsTr("Title text")
	selectedIndex: 2
	model: loader.target
	onAccepted: fncDoSomething(selectedIndex);
}

Another possible solution is create "empty" ListElements and then on ListModel completed use qsTr on the elements.

model: ListModel {
    id: list
    ListElement { name: "" }
    ListElement { name: "" }
    ListElement { name: "" }

    Component.onCompleted: {
        list.get(0).name = qsTr("A")
        list.get(1).name = qsTr("B")
        list.get(2).name = qsTr("C")
    }
}

Br,
