qt creator 1.3 qt 4.6 64 bit on Linux.
I was looking at a structure that contained a char variable. The varable 
had 'M', but qtcreator would only display the hex of that. (It would be 
nice to show a few formats at a time if there is room)
I tried to change the format to show an integer and it showed a 0 which 
was different then the value.

I don't know if it is reproducible, as I was under stress to debug my 
program, and didn't have time to experiment.

In many other respects the qt-creator saved the day, as my debugger I 
usually use (kdbg) isn't supported by kde4 and none of the others I 
tried had all the functionality I needed.

Thanks for a great product.
