How might one go about setting an alternating background colour on listview cells?

My goal is to use 100% QML to do this.

Thanks!

In a list item component

Container {
    id: myitem
    layout: DockLayout {
    }
    background: {
                if(myitem.ListItem.indexPath % 2 == 0) {
                    return Color.Black
                } else {
                    return Color.White
                }
            }
        }

Knew it had to be something easy.

Still wrapping my head around QML.

Thanks a lot!

In some situations, you may want to use ListItem.indexInSection instead of indexPath. Both are documented in https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/reference/bb__cascades__listview.html
