<![CDATA[QtextDocument no document]]>I have a project that was originally developed in Creator 2.0.1 and when I try to run it on a new computer running Creator 2.4.1 it doesn't work properly. I have a button that when pressed displays a manual. The code works fine on the other computer and when I copy the project to the new computer, clean the project, and rebuild the project, it displays a blank QTextDocument and in the appplication output window it shows "QTextBrowser: No document for UserManual.html" Here is the code I use:

@void DlgHelpBrowser::showPage(const QString &page) //slot for showing the page
{
QString path= directoryOf("manual").absolutePath();
qDebug()<<"path"<<path; //when this runs it shows the correct path
qDebug()<<"page"<<page; //when this runs it shows the correct file
DlgHelpBrowser *browser = new DlgHelpBrowser (path, page);
browser->resize(1000, 800);
browser->show();
}@
@QDir DlgHelpBrowser::directoryOf(const QString &subdir)
{
QDir dir(QApplication::applicationDirPath());
if (dir.dirName().toLower()== "debug" || dir.dirName().toLower()=="release")
dir.cdUp();
dir.cd(subdir);
return dir;
}@

I have looked over the code and the settings in the Creator and can't find any issues.
Any ideas??

It was the first time I ran the program then I changed it. Would that have changed a setting that I need to set back? Just before the QText document is called the I see that the correct path is set. Is there a setting to see what QTextDocument is looking for?

You can disable this property or add your file to the application resources.
