    I am still mostly working with Qt 4.8, but I have 5.3 installed for testing purposes.
    When I now press F1 on a symbol of my code, I usually get the 5.3 help, not the 4.8 one.

    • Is there a way to tell Creator to open the help corresponding to the Qt version used by the project settings?
    • Alternatively, is there a way to specify which help is opened by default?

      check your paths (env vars)

        Maybe I have been a bit unclear: I have both the help files for 5.3 and 4.8 available. So my paths seem to be all right.
        But I would prefer the help for 4.8 to open by default (or, even better, for whatever Qt version is currently set in the project to which the currently edited document belongs).

          May be you need change your default kit in Tools > Options > Build & Run ->Kits

            Thanks for the suggestion, but I already had 4.8.2 as default kit. I suspect Creator simply opens the newest help first.
