Qt (QML) Dashed Circle - qt

Question

Is there any way to draw half dashed circle in QML? I drawn half circle in this way
var Circle = getContext("2d");
Circle.save();
var CircleGradient =
Circle.createLinearGradient(parent.width/4,parent.height,parent.width/4,0);
CircleGradient.addColorStop(0, firstGradientPoint);
CircleGradient.addColorStop(1, secondGradientPoint);
Circle.clearRect(0, 0, parent.width, parent.height);
Circle.beginPath();
Circle.lineCap = "round";
Circle.lineWidth = 10;
Circle.strokeStyle = CircleGradient
Circle.arc(parent.width/2, parent.height/2, canvas.radius - (Circle.lineWidth / 2), Math.PI/2, canvas.Value);
Circle.stroke();
Circle.restore();
Result
But how can I make it dashed like this.

Answer 1

I know that this question is very outdated, but it might help someone. You can use Qt Quick Shapes (since Qt 5.10) to render what you want. It's not copy-paste code, but more of an approach:
Shape {
ShapePath {
id: shapePath
strokeColor: "black"
strokeStyle: ShapePath.DashLine
dashPattern: [6, 8]
fillColor: "transparent"
PathArc {
x: 0
y: radiusX + radiusY
radiusX: 100
radiusY: 100
useLargeArc: true
}
}
}
PathArc documentation has pretty much everything you need. Here are some more Shape Examples.

I know QML little bit but never coded.
But you can solve your problem by logic.
Here is the logic- Code below is pseudo, will not work but will give you an idea.
Draw the small arcs in loop with spaces in between.
//DECLARE YOUR ANGLES START AND END
startAngle = 0.0;
endAngle = pi/20;// 10 ARCS AND 10 SPACES
while (q++ < 10){
Circle.arc(parent.width/2, parent.height/2, canvas.radius - (Circle.lineWidth / 2), startAngle, endAngle, canvas.Value)
//LEAVE SPACE AND CREATE NEW START AND END ANGLE.
startAngle = endAngle + endAngle;
endAngle = startAngle + endAngle;
}
