+
+ \brief A data model that represents the history of a web engine page.
+
+ The WebEngineHistoryModel type exposes the \e title, \e url, \e icon, and \e offset roles.
+ The \e title, \e url and \e icon specify the title, URL, and favicon of the visited page.
+ The \e offset specifies
+ the position of the page in respect to the current page (0). A positive number indicates that
+ the page was visited after the current page, whereas a negative number indicates that the page
+ was visited before the current page.
+
+ This type is uncreatable, but it can be accessed by using the
+ \l{WebEngineView::history}{WebEngineView.history} property.

+ \qmltype WebEngineHistory
+ \instantiates QWebEngineHistory
+ \inqmlmodule QtWebEngine
+ \since QtWebEngine 1.1
+
+ \brief Provides data models that represent the history of a web engine page.
+
+ The WebEngineHistory type can be accessed by using the
+ \l{WebEngineView::history}{WebEngineView.history} property.
+
+ The WebEngineHistory type provides the following WebEngineHistoryModel data model objects:
+
+ \list
+ \li \c backItems, which contains the URLs of visited pages.
+ \li \c forwardItems, which contains the URLs of the pages that were visited after visiting
+ the current page.
+ \li \c items, which contains the URLs of the back and forward items, as well as the URL of
+ the current page.
+ \endlist
+
+ The easiest way to use these models is to use them in a ListView as illustrated by the
+ following code snippet:
+
+ \code
+ ListView {
+ id: historyItemsList
+ anchors.fill: parent
+ model: webEngineView.history.items
+ delegate:
+ Text {
+ color: "black"
+ text: model.title + " - " + model.url + " (" + model.offset + ")"
+ }
+ }
+ \endcode
+
+ The ListView shows the content of the corresponding model. The delegate is responsible for the
+ format of the list items. The appearance of each item of the list in the delegate can be defined
+ separately (it is not web engine specific).
+
+ The model roles \e title, \e url, and \e icon specify the title, URL, and favicon of the
+ visited page. The \e offset
+ role specifies the position of the page in respect to the current page (0). A positive number
+ indicates that the page was visited after the current page, whereas a negative number indicates
+ that the page was visited before the current page.
+
+ The data models can also be used to create a menu, as illustrated by the following code
+ snippet:
+
+ \quotefromfile webenginequick/quicknanobrowser/BrowserWindow.qml
+ \skipto ToolBar
+ \printuntil onObjectRemoved
+ \printuntil }
+ \printuntil }
+ \printuntil }
+
+ For the complete example, see \l{WebEngine Quick Nano Browser}.
