Qt Quick 2 Custom Input Example

Customizing input in a QML application.

The Qt Quick 2 Custom Input example shows how to customize the 3D graph controls from Qt Quick 2 using the MouseArea to capture and process mouse events in QML. Custom input handling code in this example shows how the camera is now controlled by using NumberAnimation to animate the camera and item selection is done on mouseover rather than clicking any mouse buttons. Also the code shows how to implement similar zoom with mouse wheel functionality as the default input handler implements.

Removing Default Input Handling

The default input handling mechanism is disabled by setting the inputHandler property to null.

Scatter3D {
...
inputHandler: null
...

实现自定义选定处理

The on mouseover selection handling is implemented using standard MouseArea to capture the mouse events. The mouse area is configured to capture hover events and has two custom properties for mouseX and mouseY to store the last known mouse coordinates.

MouseArea {
    id: inputArea
    anchors.fill: parent
    hoverEnabled: true
    acceptedButtons: Qt.LeftButton | Qt.RightButton
    property int mouseX: -1
    property int mouseY: -1

Whenever a pointer movement related signal is received the code updates the mouseX and mouseY 特性。

onPositionChanged: {
    mouseX = mouse.x;
    mouseY = mouse.y;
}

As the selection is one shot, and is cleared each time a 3D frame is rendered, a timer is setup to retrigger selection so that the selection moves to the item currently under the mouse cursor as the camera animates around the graph even when the mouse cursor is not moving.

Timer {
    id: reselectTimer
    interval: 10
    running: true
    repeat: true
    onTriggered: {
        scatterGraph.scene.selectionQueryPosition = Qt.point(inputArea.mouseX, inputArea.mouseY);
    }
}

实现自定义缩放处理

The camera has a zoom factor that represents amount of zoom in percentages. In this example the zoom range is limited between 10% and 500%. This range is then divided to four subranges where angleDelta is scaled to different amount of zoom change based on the current subrange.

    ...
onWheel: {
    // Adjust zoom level based on what zoom range we're in.
    var zoomLevel = scatterGraph.scene.activeCamera.zoomLevel;
    if (zoomLevel > 100)
        zoomLevel += wheel.angleDelta.y / 12.0;
    else if (zoomLevel > 50)
        zoomLevel += wheel.angleDelta.y / 60.0;
    else
        zoomLevel += wheel.angleDelta.y / 120.0;
    if (zoomLevel > 500)
        zoomLevel = 500;
    else if (zoomLevel < 10)
        zoomLevel = 10;
    scatterGraph.scene.activeCamera.zoomLevel = zoomLevel;
}
    ...

实现自定义摄像头处理

The camera is animated to constantly rotate around the graph with two animations. The rotation around the graph is done with a simple NumberAnimation that just increments during 20 seconds from 0 degrees to 360 degrees and sets the Q3DCamera::xRotation 特性。

NumberAnimation {
    id: cameraAnimationX
    loops: Animation.Infinite
    running: true
    target: scatterGraph.scene.activeCamera
    property:"xRotation"
    from: 0.0
    to: 360.0
    duration: 20000
}

The camera movement up and down is implemented with a SequentialAnimation that varies the Q3DCamera::yRotation property of the camera from 5 degrees to 45 degrees and back with in and out easing.

SequentialAnimation {
    id: cameraAnimationY
    loops: Animation.Infinite
    running: true
    NumberAnimation {
        target: scatterGraph.scene.activeCamera
        property:"yRotation"
        from: 5.0
        to: 45.0
        duration: 9000
        easing.type: Easing.InOutSine
    }
    NumberAnimation {
        target: scatterGraph.scene.activeCamera
        property:"yRotation"
        from: 45.0
        to: 5.0
        duration: 9000
        easing.type: Easing.InOutSine
    }
}
