    it does not work when it is first installed.
    Now I have started QtCreator with the -tcs parameter.
    New Project -> Widget App -> next, next, next...
    Auto complete and outline not working.

    • how did you install Creator?
    • can you compile this program successfully with -tcs?

    Regards

      I don't compile QtCreator. I'm using system package managers. pacman, octopi, apt, muon, synaptic etc. Arch or debian.

        I meant if you can compile the "New Project -> Widget App" from the Creator started with -tcs.

        Can you try the official installer from Qt? https://download.qt.io/official_releases/online_installers/

        Creator needs a special and patches version of Clang, and the distros usually don't patch Clang. So would not be surprised if that indeed would not work.

          Online installer does not work with ssl problem anyway.
          ssl does not allow the system to delete. Even if version 1.0 is installed, it does not work when 1.1 is in the system.

            @A-A-SEZEN Have you already rised that issue here in the forum or created a bugreport?

            Otherwise it is unlikely to be resolved.

              In short, no.
              I searched and maybe found the solution you specified in the forum.
              I thought it wasn't on other linux users. Bug report is exhausting me.
              The source of the error is not clear either. QtCreator or plugin.
              It was easy to find and implement the solution.
              Regards

                Thank you for this information. I have learned.

                  @A-A-SEZEN you mentioned you have found a solution. Could you state it here? Because I'm having the same problem.

                    Have you tried starting Creator with temporary clean settings? I.e. parameter -tcs since Creator 4.9.

                      So presumably as a command line argument after the path to Qt Creator .exe.

                        Thanks @JonB. But there's still a problem.

                        As I am on a Mac, I cded to ~/Qt/'Qt Creator'/Contents/MacOS' and ran ./'Qt Creator' -tcs. Qt Creator opened up, with auto-completion and rest working, but when I closed the app an opened it again, no information was preserved, e.g. font size, Use FakeVim, etc.
