[Qt-creator] feature request

[Boy Lenssen]

Yes, there is for declaration/definition, but for reference look-up
you'll have to use the search...

This feature I request is the only reason why I'm using source insight
(just like the only reason I'm using visual studio is to debug my code)

Qt Creator doesn't have an interface that looks like that but there IS a

keyboard shortcut, as well as an option in the right-click menu, to jump

between the declaration and definition of a symbol.
