This is kind of hidden at the moment. There's two ways:

1) Switch to "Build&Run" mode and use the "Startup" column to select 
which project is the startup project.

2) Click-and-hold the Run button, and it'll popup a menu allowing you to 
choose which project to run.

Probably you're right that the QuickOpen needs a "current file overview" 
filter, that basically filters the combo box at the top of the document. 
Note that you can already specify which filters and enabled by default 
or require a prefix in the filters configuration.

Just perfect. :-)

Hmm, works for me. Does it find the Qt includes? Are your header files 
recognized as C++ source? If not it might be due to the file extension, 
which is a problem we already intend to fix.
