I can confirm this. Can you create a bug report for it?

However, I couldn't reproduce your 64 bit issues. I've been building with 16.00.40219.01 for x64 , configure was "configure -prefix %CD%\qtbase -opensource -confirm-license -nomake tests". The examples show exactly the same behavior as on 32 bit.

If you've I installed the binary packages you should find the .html files under docs. Open e.g. 5.0.0/%compiler%/doc/qtdoc/index.html . If you're building yourself, run 'make docs'.
