    Hello,

    Is there a way to make QtCreator use string ID instead of text? I want it to generate trId() calls instead of tr() calls so we could universally use ID which makes multiple language support far easier.

    Thanks,

      Qt uses strings (the original source text) as translation keys. But nothing prevents you from using the tr() functions like this:

      @tr("12345")@

      where 12345 is your translation ID. But Qt seems to make it possible to attach an ID to a translation key. Perhaps "this":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/i18n-source-translation.html#adding-meta-data-to-strings is what you are looking for?
