Hi,
I am trying to generate moc files in Qt 5.9.1 by adding new .ui file to the project but its not generating.

@User002 How are you adding those ui files? Is it a qmake project? You need provide more information if you want to get help from others.

@User002 Then I don't know - never used Qt with Visual Studio. Maybe somebody else has a solution.

Are you using the Qt Visual Studio add-in? If you are, try reinstalling it. Otherwise you should install it. After that remove, then readd the .ui file(s).

VS doesn't know by itself what a .ui file is, so it needs a custom build step. That is where the Qt Visual Studio add-in comes in.

By the way, MOC is for program code (signal/slots etc.). For .ui files UIC is used. And RCC handles Qt resource files.
