I have a Button in one of my ListItemComponents.

This button "consumes" the click event and emits clicked, but:

from the ListItemComponent i cannot access the outer qml page (or the classes registered from c++).

When i click on another part of the component the onTriggered of the ListView is called, but not when i click the button.

Is there a way to

- disable the "consume click" behavior of the button or

- access the qml or c++ class from the ListItemComponent

?

See my post here, should give you an idea of how to reach out of the listitemcomponent

Hmm, no, i don't get it from this post, could you describe it or give me a quick sample?

Now I could have totally misunderstood the question but this is what I thought you were asking... The same would go for if you used a custom qml component as the contents of the listitemcomponent. You would do the accessing of the listview in the same way from inside that class, or from a gesturehandler defined inline in the listitemcomponent definition.

Container {
	id: page1 //or whatever component with a context property set for your c++ class
	ListView {
		id: mylistview
		ListItemComponents: [
			ListItemComponent {
				id: mycomp
				Container {
					id: containerContents
					Label { text: "my list item" + ListItemData.title; }
					gestureHandlers: [
						TapHandler {
							onTapped: containerContents.ListItem.view.doSomethingWithItem(ListItemData);
						}						
					]				
				}			
			}
		]
		function doSomethingWithItem(data) {
			contextProp.callCPPMethod(data); //or do something else with it		
		}		
	}
}
