+
+    This property can be used to define custom behaviors based on the name or the object of
+    the property being controlled.
+
+    The following example defines a Behavior fading out and fading in its target object
+    when the property it controls changes:
+    \qml
+    // FadeBehavior.qml
+    import QtQuick 2.15
+
+    Behavior {
+        id: root
+        property Item fadeTarget: targetProperty.object
+        SequentialAnimation {
+            NumberAnimation {
+                target: root.fadeTarget
+                property: "opacity"
+                to: 0
+                easing.type: Easing.InQuad
+            }
+            PropertyAction { } // actually change the controlled property between the 2 other animations
+            NumberAnimation {
+                target: root.fadeTarget
+                property: "opacity"
+                to: 1
+                easing.type: Easing.OutQuad
+            }
+        }
+    }
+    \endqml
+
+    This can be used to animate a text when it changes:
+    \qml
+    import QtQuick 2.15
+
+    Text {
+        id: root
+        property int counter
+        text: counter
+        FadeBehavior on text {}
+        Timer {
+            running: true
+            repeat: true
+            interval: 1000
+            onTriggered: ++root.counter
+        }
+    }
+    \endqml
