Cannot rename directory in QtCreator
-
It seems a very simple question but I didn't find an answer in the old threads.
I'm using QtCreator 5.0.2 under Ubuntu 20.04.In the project tree there are several directories: some for sources (i.e. "src", "qml", "include", etc...) some in Other Files ("configs", "images", etc...).
I'm not able to rename them.
The popup menu (right-click) does not provide a "rename" action for the folders but for files only.
If I try to rename the folder on the file-system QtCreator does not detect the changes and the file cannot be opened anymore.So... what is the correct way to rename a directory in the project tree?

Got it. Hard to believe we need to make such a hack instead of just rename inside the IDE! Unbelievable...

inside the IDE
Please be aware that you're not obliged to use Qt Creator IDE to develop (write/test/debug) any Qt application...
