    Description

      Graphical Effects look very different in Qt 6 compared to Qt 5: https://www.qt.io/blog/a-short-guide-to-qt-quick-effects However, information on how to port is scattered.

       

      Suggestions

      1. For every 6.0/6.1/6.2 specific page under https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/portingguide.html#check-the-changes-to-the-modules the up-to-date  version of that page should be merged into https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/modulechanges.html
      2. The merged section about "Qt Graphical Effects" should point to all available Effects technologies (and ideally an overview on how to choose between them - see the blog post above)
      3. https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/portingguide.html#check-the-changes-to-the-modules should point to the up-to-date https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/modulechanges.html, and the 6.0/6.1/6.2 specific links should disappear
      4. https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtgraphicaleffects5-index.html should point to the new, consolidated information above

       

      (These suggestions are focused on Qt Graphical Effects, but all other modules would benefit too)
