<h2 id="details">Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The <a href="qml-qtquick-anchorchanges.html">AnchorChanges</a> type is used to modify the anchors of an item in a <a href="qml-qtquick-state.html">State</a>.</p>
<p><a href="qml-qtquick-anchorchanges.html">AnchorChanges</a> cannot be used to modify the margins on an item. For this, use <a href="qml-qtquick-propertychanges.html">PropertyChanges</a> intead.</p>
<p>In the following example we change the top and bottom anchors of an item using <a href="qml-qtquick-anchorchanges.html">AnchorChanges</a>, and the top and bottom anchor margins using <a href="qml-qtquick-propertychanges.html">PropertyChanges</a>:</p>
