Custom build system for QML in Sublime Text 3

I have created a build system for QML in sublime, so selecting that build system and doing a ctrl+B builds the qml code for me. But every time I switch between different type files (eg. a .py file and .qml file) I have to change the build system from QML to Automatic and vice versa. What can I do so that sublime automatically recognizes a .qml file and selects the appropriate build-system when Automatic is selected? (which for my .qml files should be the QML.sublime-build that I created)

Here is my build system for qml: (in the file "QML.sublime-build")

{
    "shell_cmd": "qmlscene.exe $file_name"
}

Here is a nice sublime-package for QML. This has syntax highlighting for QML and some QML snippets and more importantly, automatic build system for QML. Here is one more. Though I did not use the latter, but it says it has even more features!

The documentation and reference for build systems contain all the information you need. Specifically to your situation, you need a "selector" option:

{
    "cmd": ["qmlscene.exe", "$file_name"],
    "selector": "source.qml"
}

You can now select Automatic in the Build Systems menu, and hitting CtrlB will build QML files with this system, and Python files with the Python build system.
