Hi all,

is there a way to change dynamically the z index of a visual node in QML ?

Thanks.

I have the same questions. Any idea? 

[fredoust]

Someone know if something changed about this ?

Cause I have a page with some elements draggable, the problem is that when I drag an element, there is a conflict if this one is under another element, so I would like to increase it z index.

I am only 99% sure, but I don't think this is possible.

Arf in QtQuick it was...

It appears as if z-order is strictly a property of when the element was created, with the most recently created elements having the highest z-order.

It is a hack, but I am generating one of my pages from the bottom up in order to get the proper z-ordering on things...

if you want your overlap control receive touch event you should allow OverlapTouchPolicy https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/reference/bb__cascades__overlaptouchpolicy.html

this documentation may be can help you : https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/documentation/dev/touch/touch_propagation.html

but if you want to re arrange z-index of a component, you must re-arrange the scene graph, sample is available at bbjamcarousel sample :
