    I installed Qt 5.9.1 and 5.8.0 ising the online installer for Mac OS X. There is a documentation folder filled with qdocconf files but no html directory and no documentation available to QtCreator. What the heck?

      @drhalftone What are the contents of the doc directory?

      I usually build my qt from source in which case I always need to do make docs && make install_docs but if you used the installer it should have just worked.

        @drhalftone I think you're looking in the wrong location. I'm not sure how the Qt directory structure on MacOS is. On Linux it is like:

        .
        ├── 5.5
        ├── 5.7
        │   └── gcc_64
        ├── 5.8
        │   └── gcc_64
        ├── dist
        ├── Docs
        │   ├── Qt-5.5
        │   ├── Qt-5.6
        │   ├── Qt-5.7
        │   ├── Qt-5.8
        │   └── QtWebView
        ├── Examples
        │   ├── Qt-5.5
        │   ├── Qt-5.6
        │   ├── Qt-5.7
        │   ├── Qt-5.8
        │   └── QtWebView
        ├── Extras
        │   ├── QtCanvas3D
        │   └── QtWebView
        ├── Licenses
        └── Tools
            └── QtCreator
        

        Documentation is inside Docs/Qt_VERSION, not inside Qt_VERSION/doc.

            The only thing inside Docs is QtWebView. There are no directories for the various installed version of Qt.
