    Description

      See https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-outline-view.html

       

      Code

      import QtQuick
import QtQuick.Controls.Basic

Window {
    id: root
    width: 800
    height: 600
    visible: true

    Button {
        id: btn_start
        text: "Start"
    }
    Button {
        id: btn_pause
        text: "Pause"
    }
    Button {
        id: btn_stop
        text: "Stop"
    }
    Button {
        text: "Anonymous"
    }
}

      Notes

      • If we uncheck "Show All Bindings", then the view is very similar to the suggested Collapsed view
      • A QML ID is not a property anyway, so it shouldn't be treated as one
