    \title Using Qt Quick Toolbars

    When you select a QML type in the code and a toolbar is available,
     a light bulb icon appears:
    \inlineimage qml-toolbar-indicator.png
    . Select the icon to open the toolbar.

    To open toolbars immediately when you select a QML type, select
    \gui{Tools > Options > Qt Quick > Qt Quick Toolbar > Always show Qt Quick
    Toolbar}.

    Drag the toolbar to pin it to another location. Select
    \inlineimage qml-toolbar-pin.png
    to unpin the toolbar and move it to its default location. To pin toolbars
    by default, select \gui{Tools > Options > Qt Quick > Qt Quick Toolbar
    > Pin Quick Toolbar}.

    \section1 Previewing Images

    The Qt Quick Toolbar for images allows you to edit the properties of
    BorderImage and \l{Image} items.
    You can scale and tile the images, replace them with other images,
    preview them, and change the image margins.

    To preview an image, double-click it on the toolbar. In the preview
    dialog, you can zoom the image. Drag the image margins to change them.

    \section1 Formatting Text

    The Qt Quick Toolbar for text allows you to edit the properties of
    \l{Text} items.
    You can change the font family and size as well as text formatting, style,
    alignment, and color.

    If a property is assigned an expression instead of a value, you
    cannot use the toolbar to edit it. The button for editing the property
    is disabled.

    By default, font size is specified as pixels. To use points, instead,
    change \gui px to \gui pt in the size field.

    \section1 Previewing Animation

    The Qt Quick Toolbar for animation allows you to edit the properties of
    PropertyAnimation items and the items that inherit it. You can
    change the easing curve type and duration. For some curves, you can also
    specify amplitude, period, and overshoot values.

    Select the play button to preview your changes.

    \section1 Editing Rectangles

    The Qt Quick Toolbar for rectangles allows you to edit the properties of
    \l{Rectangle} items. You can change the fill and border colors and add
    gradients.

    To add gradient stop points, click above the gradient bar. To remove
    stop points, drag them upwards.
