Context Sensitive Help (F1) says "No documentation available"

[gabimuc]

I'm new to QT and trying to get the help working for quite some time now. Installed, de-installed, added, removed different QT versions via QT Maintenance Tool but to no avail.

In Tools/Options/Help, tab documentation, there are a lot of files as "Registered Documentation", all with the comment (auto-detect). I tried to delete the files and register them manually, but this didn't help either.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

@gabimuc Are we talking about QtCreator? Or where do you want to use context sensitive help?

@gabimuc not to imply anything, but you may be using the F1 key wrong :D

quick verification, when on the left side bar you click on the question mark do you get the help context/display ?

Pressing the F1 key will bring up a reference to that section there and it only works, if your cursor is over a known Qt "keyword/class/function/macro" etc

Yes, Qt Creator 5.0.2, based on QT 5.15.2 (GCC 7.3.1 20180303 (Red Hat 7.3.1-5), 64 bit)

@J-Hilk ahh, just leaving the cursor on the expression did the trick. I always double clicked it (complete word was marked) and hit F1 with the described effect.
Thanks a lot!
