    @artwaw Thanks! I think this is probably the best way to do it since I already had started documenting all of the header files in Doxygen style, so it won't be much effort to finish adding a @file comment to each header and let Doxygen generate the class list.

    hello, I'm having the same problem. did you find a solution? when i create the project as compat and make the minimum qt version 5.15 it works. But when I create it as min 6.4 I have the same problem as you. I guess qt hasn't released any improvements yet or I'm missing something. Can someone who is competent about this issue inform us?

    Did you re-run configure for your project ? I just realized that it's complaining for 6.7.1 and you have 6.7.2.

    Hi and welcome to devnet, How did you configure your build ? It seems that the wrong version of Qt is used at some point. It seems there's a mix of Qt Design Studio and system libraries. Which neither should be involved if the configuration is done properly.

    Thanks, didn't see the "Copy Steps from another kit", I have typically done it manually (in UI or CMakeLists.txt.user, but that file is close to 400k and not easy to navigate). Is there also a way to stop the project from being parsed before I have finished updating build path etc.? When adding new kits, they always start by polluting my source folder with lots of intermediate files, until I manage to change the build folder.

    @ChrisW67 @ChrisW67 said in Exporting and Importing Qt Creator settings: Those instructions are about forcing/sharing Project settings, not the installation-wide Qt Creator IDE settings (i.e. the settings you see in Edit->Prefrences or equivalent). Thank you for clarifying this. I tried looking into the "All Topics" section of the documentation, but I couldn't find anything relevant to my case. The closest topic I found was when searching for the keyword "Settings" on the page and found this section about "Find settings files". The page has some useful information, but it is still a bit ambiguous and does not fully explain which files to target, where to copy them, or any other procedures we need to consider. Anyway, here's an image of my current Roaming/QtProject folder structure: [image: 99f671b0-1f7b-4d27-88e1-dbba23f6f90d.png] Which files do I need to copy for my preferences to be transferred to my new installation? I would also appreciate it if you could very briefly explain to me what each of these files contain and what they do. (I'm assuming I need to copy the files you mentioned to the same Roaming/QtProject directory for my new installation, is that correct?)

    @Mihaill said in How using meson: I press OK, not INSTALL and it's installed Yes that's what I said. If it appears in the list with the checkbox, you can activate the plugin and it should work. "Install" is to install other plugins from file on your computer. @Pl45m4 said in How using meson: Don't click "Install Plugin". If you have it already, you just need to activate it. Find it in your list and see the checkBox next to "Meson.... Manager...Plugin". When you have a tick mark there, it's already loaded, otherwise check it by clicking the box.

    Note that the option Use automatic symbol cache in Qt Creator will end up issue the set index-cache on command to GDB. As seen at https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt-creator/qt-creator/+/348577 from Jun 11, 2021.
