    @Kymro Are you trying to release your code under GPL or LGPL? I have not heard of this distinction for supplying the .ui file versus the generated .py file. But given that the .py is generated from the .ui what do you care, you can supply both of them equally easily? Having said that, someone else may wish to comment on this. If, for whatever reason, supplying the .ui and using QUiLoader is the way you want to go, fair enough. But it's a considerably worse development-time experience. There must be hundreds of Qt applications out there released under LGPL (or GPL) which choose the class-code-generation approach over QUiLoader.

    @rock37 Why ask me, I don't know, I presume it has some trouble with it? If you hover over the yellow triangle, the yellow line or the yellow light bulb does it tell you something?

    Would love to edit my last reply, but can't due to the 3600s since last edit time restriction... Which should not be applicable since I posted two days ago? UseTab=ForIndentation seems to be more reliable than UseTab=AlignWithSpaces

    Hi @SuperSelrak, I think that is an indication. As said, my projects are small so I don't have a performance penalty when searching with access type. If you have suggestions for UI improvement, you should file a suggestion at bugreports.qt.io Regards

    As @Chris-Kawa and @JoeCFD already said, Creator now has this feature. It is provided by Clangd, and therefore as good as Clangd understands your project. In header files, I got some false positives also, but in source files it works quite good. Regards

    https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-29440 was the bug report for Qt Creator 11.0.0. But you are using Qt Creator 11.0.3, which should work. Try with Qt Creator 12.0.2. Otherwise the bugfixing is happening now in Qt Creator 13 branch.

    Please open a bug report. Note that the number of build types will increase the generating time for all configurations. See https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/25440 for more details. Qt Creator 13 comes with a "Presets Kits" only configuration page.

    @JoeCFD Yeah, indeed i don't use cmake. The defined some custom steps for building and cleaning the project. Very fast. Qt creator allows me to customize whatever things and my projects are the real examples. I don't like vscode because the debug as root user, which is an important feature for me, is almost hard to configure. In qt creator is very easy to set.
