    Hi and welcome to devnet, For the how: create an instance of that class and connect as described in the documentation. That said, there's nothing wrong in having slots in your QMainWindow subclass. Just beware of not making it a god class that does anything and everything in your application. You must take the time to create a sane architecture for your application.

    @Robert-Hairgrove this brought back some memories ! I don't remember exactly why I needed that but that trick was very good to know. I think I needed to build a set of commands to be execute or something like that.

    Hi, Did you check if the configuration of Qt Creator itself have been reset ? I am not sure whether they would be in the registry or in a file on Windows. By default it should be the former though.

    Thanks you very much! I moved source code to src folder but I forgot to change it in the qt_add_executable section like this: qt_add_executable(app WIN32 MACOSX_BUNDLE src/debug-drawer.h src/debug-drawer.cpp src/main.cpp src/mainwindow.cpp src/mainwindow.h ) Solved: https://github.com/8Observer8/debug-drawer-qpainter-box2dv3-qt6-cpp [image: 505009b2-2615-4569-b2c7-a9cbaa254558.png]

    @Perdrix Visual Studio has its Natvis debugging helpers. The scripting part from Qt is maybe related to Qt Creator. I don't know if it works with Visual Studio's DAP support. I remember seeing somewhere that the scripts should also help with Xcode. You could test and say if you can see this program: #include <QCoreApplication> #include <QList> #include <QString> #include <QDebug> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QCoreApplication a(argc, argv); QList<QString> message; message << "Hello"; message << "Qt"; message << "World!"; qDebug() << message; // <-- breakpoint here } works just as well as it does with Qt Creator: [image: 63386ea4-2624-46b1-b0d8-b0e37a69e057.png]

    @Byloo If you are a real, interested person, no it does not put in whole parameters' text on autocomplete. If you are not a genuine person it doesn't matter --- but the answer is still here for others reading the initial post :)

    @asenzz I have https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-28861 opened. Can you provide a small project that highlights the issue? Either comment on that bug or here.
