Hi
Make sure you have this on.
Then mine remembers what i folded.

It does, but only for the last session. So once you read in some other project for whatever reason, you lose the folding remembered on the first project, right? That's what I meant by "limited". And in fact I do not have Restore last session on startup checked, but it does restore folding if I click the Open last session, so I think it's just a "last session" thing regardless of when/how you restore.Or do you find a way to remember previous sessions too?

Hi mine still remembers it.
I open another project and remove the first one.
Close creator.
Then i open the creator again, and it showing the non folded project.
Then i loaded the closed project and it still
had the folding info.
So not sure when it will not be remembered. -

Sigh :(
I just closed my project, opened an old one to discuss with someone. When I returned to the original project it had forgotten all folds :( So I assumed that was because I had changed project, so it was no longer "the previous session"....Now I can't repro that. In which case, how & when does Creator manage to forget all my folds? (I don't delete project.) I swear it must have a mind of its own/gremlins, sometimes....

I think it is indeed something to do with using "sessions". If I sometimes do click to open a project from the list of projects it does not restore, but if I do it via "last session" it does. How this gets me when swapping between project I'm not sure. -

hi
yes if you enable session then yes.
Also you can clone the session and rename it and always have one where its folded as you want.
But jonB have seen it forgets it so it might have issues :)https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-managing-sessions.html

But then, over time your file contents change, so I assume it's useless restoring to an old session, it won't know where to do the folds now?
For @jkwok678, just try as @mrjj says, set the session to auto-restore, and see how it goes for you.

I not sure it stores the project in the session, only bookmarks, folding and such things.
Hmm. So I think you're saying: it's not to do with saving "old" sessions. By cloning the current default session, and saving it under the name of my project, I can use that named project session always with my project, and that named session will get updated with latest folds/bookmarks as I then change my project? If I switch over to some other session for some other project, I can still then return to the saved, named session for my main project and get back to where last saved?
I'm going to try working like that now, and see how it goes.
But then, if I change projects and it retains session to save to, my new project will start saving to my reserved session? What I want is: each project should save its folds/bookmarks wherever associated with that project, and restore from that, and save to that, period. I don't need to manage multiple sessions, I just want separate ones for each project. Automatically.
Don't you just love Qt/Creator? ;-)

Hi
Yeah but sessions are not a project thing. Its a workspace.
So a session can have one or more open projects.
But yeah it would be useful if one could clone a session and then tie to a project so when you open that project the session would also open but not sure the design ever intended to work like that.Yeah I love creator :)
