QML Label max width & multiline

Question

I have a Label, but it should only be as long as the form. If the label is longer it should start on a new line. How can I realize this? I am using QtQuick Controls 2.0

My current code for the Label:

Label {
    id: lblMsg
    width: ApplicationWindow.width - 10 // not working
    text: "ajksdlldjklasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasd"
    x: 20
    y: 20
}

Answer 1

add this line:

 wrapMode: Text.Wrap

Answer 2

Use the wrapMode property:

Label {
    id: lblMsg
    width: ApplicationWindow.width - 10
    text: "ajksdlldjklasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasdasd"
    x: 20
    y: 20
    wrapMode: Label.WordWrap
}

I'd suggest using Qt Quick Layouts to manage the layout of your application instead of sizing items manually.
