How to copy the entire subproject ? To where and be able to reload it...
-
I like to keep my own versions of the entire project , including parent folders - using Linux "File manager".
When I put a mouse on main project file - see highlighted file - i get its full folder path.
HOWEVER - it lasts only few seconds and my os STARTED TO MAKE A MESS USING ID - instead of plain human names I originally assigned to parent foLder .iT WOULD BE NICE TO BE ABLE TO COPY THE "TOOL TIP" PATH.
I did use "welcome screen " clone , but did not find WHERE it went and never been able to reload it again - again, it appears OS issue.

it appears OS issue.
PEBCAK ;-)
Sorry, but you dont know where you saved all your projects?!
Have you searched in yourusr/home(~) directory already? I would assume you've created your projects there...I did use "welcome screen " clone , but did not find WHERE it went and never been able to reload it again
Doesn't QtCreator show the path to the project below each "recent project" in the welcome screen's project tab?
Cant you just right-click any code file and select the 2nd option in context menu which says like "Show in File Explorer..." or something like that? It opens a new file explorer window right where your project files are located on your drive.
Another suggestion from here:
You see the ComboBox-like element right aboveFT857_CAT_Bluetooth_Oct19which says "Projects"?!
Click it, open the dropdown menu and select Filesystem.
The view at your project should change now and you see your project files in a structure as it exists on your hard disk.
And there should be a directory name and path where all this is located...
If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.

It looks as most reliable way is to select from project -> file system view.If i use the miniature arrows to select same - File system I get "home" tree - not what I am looking for.

But that's what you asked for... and you can see the path where your project is located.
