[Qt-creator] Question about Qt Creator Help documentation

[Miettinen Riitta-Leena]

Hello,

The Qt Creator packages contain only the Qt Creator Manual. The Qt documentation is delivered with the Qt packages. You can use the Qt 5.1.0 installation program to install the Qt reference documentation:

http://qt-project.org/downloads

If you build Qt 5.1.0 yourself, you must also build the documentation, which is a little bit tricky with the modularization of the docs. The instructions are here:

http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building_Qt_Documentation

Hope this helps,

Leena

I’ve got Qt Creator 2.8 installed built off from Qt 5.1.0.  When I first opened it up and loaded an existing project, I was able to access the help documentation, but it was for Qt 4.7.4, which is installed on this machine, but not the documentation I want to use.  I messed around with some settings trying to get the help documentation to point at Qt 5.1.  I successfully managed to get it to stop pointing at the Qt 4.7.4 documentation, so now when I hit F1 on a Qt class the Help pane pops up saying “No documentation found”!  Not exactly the result I was hoping for…

I’m not finding any .qch files under /usr/local/Qt-5.1.0 to point Qt Creator to.

Any suggestions?

Sean
