I am trying to dynamically create objects in qml-javascript.The function which creates the object is:

function createSpriteObjects(xPos,yPos,cnt,imgsrc,jsonObject) {
    var title;
    title = jsonObject.matches[cnt].recipeName;
    var ponent = Qt.createComponent("FlickItem.qml");
    ponent.createObject(wall.contentItem, {"color":"white", "x":xPos,"y":yPos,"src":imgsrc,"opacity":1,"title":title});
}

The recieving file(FlickItem.qml) has a property string title which is later assigned to the text field of the Text item:

import QtQuick 2.0

Rectangle {
id: name
opacity: 0
property string title: ""
width:100
height:100
color:"white"

property string src: ""

Image {
   id:recipeimages
   source: src
   width:240
   height:160
}
Text {
   id: title
   anchors.bottom: recipeimages.bottom
   anchors.horizontalCenter: recipeimages.horizontalCenter
   anchors.bottomMargin: 5
   color: "white"
   font.pixelSize: 24
   text:title
}

the following error is returned:

unable to assign QQuickText to QString

Any way around this?

Rectangle {
id: name
//...
property string title: ""  <------ title
//...
}

Text {
   //...
   id: title   <----- title
   //...
   text:title    <---- which title ?!?!?!
}

The problem is you have a property bound to the title identifier, and an id bound to the title identifier. Based on your output, you are likely trying to assign text from the id (and not the property).

Changing the id of your Text ponent should solve your problem.
