Installed Qt 4.8.5 but can't find the qt creator app [solved]

Franklin Phil

I successfully installed Qt 4.8.5 on my Linux Ubuntu PC. I can run qt assistant, qt designer but I do not see the qt creator application.

I don't think qtcreator was actually installed along with the qt library. I did not have this problem when I installed qt 5.1.1.

I'm sorry, but I have no experience with versions below 5.
Yours sincerely

Hi,

Qt Creator is not part of Qt's library like Designer, qmake and friends. It's a software that has been made later. You can install it using Ubuntu's repository (apt-get install qt-creator or something like that) or use the dedicated installer if you want the latest version (3.0RC1 at this time)

The Qt 5 SDKs contains it but right now for recent Qt 4 versions (post Nokia time) you have only the libraries to download.

Thank you so much. It was apt-get install qtcreator. Everything is working great including the non-alphanumeric character issue. It works fine with this version of qtcreator.
