How can I use QtQuickControls 1.4 to take advantage of the ExclusiveGroup, given that I have QtQuickControls 2.12 and need it since I have a ScrollView, TabBar, etc.?

Answer 1

Read the documentation, it will save you a huge amount of time. You don't really need those crutches with ExclusiveGroup, it won't work with the new radio buttons anyway:

Radio buttons are auto-exclusive by default. only one button can be checked at any time among radio buttons that belong to the same parent item; checking another button automatically unchecks the previously checked one. For radio buttons that do not share a common parent, ButtonGroup can be used to manage exclusivity.
