## Detailed Description

The SystemPalette type provides access to the Qt application palettes. This provides information about the standard colors used for application windows, buttons and other features. These colors are grouped into three color groups: `active`, `inactive`, and `disabled`. See the QPalette documentation for details about color groups and the properties provided by SystemPalette.

This can be used to color items in a way that provides a more native look and feel.

The following example creates a palette from the `Active` color group and uses this to color the window and text items appropriately:

     import QtQuick

     Rectangle {
         SystemPalette { id: myPalette; colorGroup: SystemPalette.Active }

         width: 640; height: 480
         color: myPalette.window

         Text {
             anchors.fill: parent
             text: "Hello!"; color: myPalette.windowText
         }
     }
