QML Loader ... How to unload or delete a qml page loaded on to Loader element

Question

I have loaded MyItem.qml as a source component onto Loader element. Now i want to remove or unload that page from Loader element. I tried to set source : "" & sourceComponent : "" , also sourceComponent : "undefined". But it did not work

Answer 1

You should set sourceComponent = undefined or source = "". Usually, I use this code:

Loader{
    id: loader
    function show(component) {
        sourceComponent = component;
    }
    function hide(){
        sourceComponent = undefined;
    }
}

Answer 2

You can just set the active property to false for unload or true (default) for loading.
