    \title Material Style

    The Material Style is based on the Google Material Design Guidelines.
    \l {detailed-description}{More...}

    \styleimport {Qt.labs.controls.material 1.0}

    \section1 Attached Properties

    \list
        \li \l {accent-attached-prop}{\b accent} : color
        \li \l {primary-attached-prop}{\b primary} : color
        \li \l {theme-attached-prop}{\b theme} : enumeration
    \endlist

    \section1 Detailed Description

    The Material style is based on the \l {https://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html}
    {Google Material Design Guidelines}. It allows for a unified experience
    across platforms and device sizes.

    \image qtlabscontrols-material.png
    \caption The Material style in light and dark themes

    \note The Material style is not a native Android style. The Material
    style is a 100% cross-platform Qt Labs Controls style implementation that
    follows the Google Material Design Guidelines. The style runs on any
    platform, and looks more or less identical everywhere. Minor differences
    may occur due to differences in available system fonts and font rendering
    engines.

    \section2 Customization

    The Material style allows customizing three attributes, \l {theme-attached-prop}{theme},
    \l {primary-attached-prop}{primary} and \l {accent-attached-prop}{accent}. The following
    example illustrates how to create a red \e stop button with light text:

    \table
        \row
            \li
                \qml
                import QtQuick 2.0
                import Qt.labs.controls 1.0
                import Qt.labs.controls.material 1.0

                Button {
                    text: "Stop"
                    highlighted: true

                    Material.accent: Material.Red
                    Material.theme: Material.Dark
                }
                \endqml
            \li
                \image qtlabscontrols-material-button.png
    \endtable

    Both attributes can be specified for any window or item, and they automatically
    propagate to children in the same manner as \l {Control::font}{fonts}. In the
    following example, the window and all three radio buttons appear in the dark
    theme using a purple accent color:

    \table
        \row
            \li
                \qml
                import QtQuick 2.0
                import Qt.labs.controls 1.0
                import Qt.labs.controls.material 1.0

                ApplicationWindow {
                    visible: true

                    Material.theme: Material.Dark
                    Material.accent: Material.Purple

                    Column {
                        anchors.centerIn: parent

                        RadioButton { text: qsTr("Small") }
                        RadioButton { text: qsTr("Medium");  checked: true }
                        RadioButton { text: qsTr("Large") }
                    }
                }
                \endqml
            \li
                \image qtlabscontrols-material-dark.png
    \endtable

    \note The Material style must be separately imported to gain access to
    these style-specific attributes. It should be noted that regardless of the
    references to the Material style, the same application code runs with any
    other style. The Material style-specific attributes only have an effect
    when the application is run with the Material style. Furthermore, in case
    of explicit Material style-specific references, the Material style must
    be deployed with the application.

    \section2 Pre-defined Colors

    Even though primary and accent can be any \l {colorbasictypedocs}{color}, it
    is recommended to use one of the pre-defined colors that have been designed
    to work well with the rest of the Material style palette:

    Available pre-defined colors:
    \value Material.Red Red (#F44336)
    \value Material.Pink Pink (#E91E63)
    \value Material.Purple Purple (#9C27B0)
    \value Material.DeepPurple Deep Purple (#673AB7)
    \value Material.Indigo Indigo (#3F51B5)
    \value Material.Blue Blue (#2196F3)
    \value Material.LightBlue Light Blue (#03A9F4)
    \value Material.Cyan Cyan (#00BCD4)
    \value Material.Teal Teal (#009688)
    \value Material.Green Green (#4CAF50)
    \value Material.LightGreen Light Green (#8BC34A)
    \value Material.Lime Lime (#CDDC39)
    \value Material.Yellow Yellow (#FFEB3B)
    \value Material.Amber Amber (#FFC107)
    \value Material.Orange Orange (#FF9800)
    \value Material.DeepOrange Deep Orange (#FF5722)
    \value Material.Brown Brown (#795548)
    \value Material.Grey Grey (#9E9E9E)
    \value Material.BlueGrey Blue Grey (#607D8B)
