Hello! I’m trying to do this:

but I can’t seem to find a “good” way to do it:

if I just place it in the Kirigami.Page it is displayed, well, in the page, as in the image above.

Kirigami.ApplicationWindow {
   pageStack.initialPage: Kirigami.ScrollablePage {
      Kirigami.SearchField { // TODO move in the page header
         id: searchField
         Layout.fillWidth: true
      }
   }
}

if I place it in the header of the window it is displayed before the actual header even:

Kirigami.ApplicationWindow {
    header: Kirigami.SearchField { // TODO move in the page header
         id: searchField
         Layout.fillWidth: true
      }
   pageStack.initialPage: Kirigami.ScrollablePage {
     
   }
}

if I place it just before the Page it goes inside the header, but all aligned to the top instead of nicely in the center:

Kirigami.ApplicationWindow {
    Kirigami.SearchField { // TODO move in the page header
         id: searchField
         Layout.fillWidth: true
      }
   pageStack.initialPage: Kirigami.ScrollablePage {
     
   }
}

what is the correct way of doing this?

thanks in advance!

    The way I’d have expected to do that would be to override the globalToolBarItem of the Kirigami.Page, but it’s read only, so I don’t really know how to help you with that. You should ask in the Kirigami Matrix room or in the Discuss forum.

    Thank you very much for the detailed answer! So there is no “quick and easy” way to do it :(
    I’ll try to look for info in the matrix room you linked, thanks!
