Ctrl-Click not working

RobertoC

Hello,

I have the Qt creator 4.11.0 and ctrl-click shortcut doesn't always work. I have to click a lot of times on a function name to take me to the function definition. Any ideas why?

Thanks,
Roberto

@RobertoC
Just checked and it works OK for me (Linux, Creator 4.8.1). I don't know the answer, but I suppose the first thing to ask is: once you hold Ctrl key down, if you move mouse over the function you want to click on does it show the underline to indicate clickable or not when it is not going to work? Does it make any difference to your behaviour if when you hold Ctrl the mouse pointer is already over the function name versus if you move the mouse from outside the function name onto the function name?

RobertoC

It doesn't make any difference if the mouse pointer is already over the function or is outside the functions. Also, every time I hold down the Ctrl the function name, or parameters which can be accessed are underlined.

@RobertoC its a matter of project size, I'm afraid.

will always work in small projects. You can turn of the clang code model (if it's still possible in 4.11) that should help

RobertoC

The project size is not big. Also, cland code model is disabled.

Everything worked fine on 4.8.1, but since updating to 4.11.0 it's not working. I also tried reinstalling the old version but now it happens also on that one.

Thanks

Is pressing F2 on the symbol also slow ?

RobertoC

@mrjj F2 works perfectly.

I have the same exact issue. And F2 works perfectly with me as well.
I'd report a bug. But I don't know what information to include.

I'm on macos so it's cmd+click for me.

Exactly same problem for me. Quite a small project but uses Boost lib which is definitely a huge lib. So ctrl+click takes ages to go to an identifier but F2 works just fine.
Without Boost everything works fine.

Same at my project: before adding boost everything worked good, but now ctrl-click redirecting takes about 5-10 seconds.
