Qt creator 4.15.0

I'm not talking about QtCreator, but Qt version...

[UG SEP]

Qt 6.0.4

[jsulm]

@UG-SEP See https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-dev/whatsnew60.html
Texttospeech is not part of Qt 6.0.x, it will probably be part of Qt 6.2.x.
You should stick to Qt5 if there is no real need to use Qt6.

So does my project created in qt 6.0.4 will we be stable when I open it in qt 5.0

@UG-SEP Yes, it should work. Some adaptations in code may be needed.

Ok I will download it and and then try to use text to speech in that
So can you tell me that I need to download something from external to run text to speech module or it may work

[jsulm]

@UG-SEP On Linux Qt texttospeech module needs libspeechd or flite. On other platforms it should work without any additional requirements.
