This might work: > https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-8968 Reflections, the same idea but a bit easier to use (once you've created the extra file for the component): http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Creating_a_reflected_image_with_QML However it would still need more work to make it work with transparency on a background. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk _______________________________________________ music mailing list music@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/music
