    I was going to ask the Archlinux guys but i know I'll get a rtfm response.... (i read docs i could find ...)

    my Qt Creator is missing the examples ( that are available in the windows and fedora install)
    (this is arch linux arm , not my choice )
    I've found the download, but it looks like there are several places to put the examples (when rtfm fails because actions out pace docs)

    http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.5/5.5.0/single/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.5.0.tar.xz
    extract that then goto
    qtbase/examples
    now where should i put this stuff?

    also qtcreator only starts with the "-noload Welcome" option or it fails to launch. and it doesn't find the compiler . I've fixed all that.
    **hence why I'm asking for your all's help. ** :-) :-)

    where do i put the examples?
    /usr/share/doc/qt/examples

    how do i tell qtcreator where to look should it fail to find them?
    qtdiag | grep Examples
    well tell you where it is looking

    thanks

      Hi,

      Might be a silly question but doesn't Arch propose a qt5-examples package ?

        Hi, also you can use qtdiag to see where what the directory is that Qt expects the examples in, like this:
        /usr/bin/qtdiag | grep Examples

          @SGaist regular Arch dose have a "qt5-examples" package... ArchLinuxARM dose not. :-/

          @hskoglund ooo now that command is just to smart.... more programs need this...

          so if someone should google this later

          extrac the Examples from the download. (qtbase/examples)
          and copy them to
          /usr/share/doc/qt/examples

          i didn't realize till now... but i was getting to the examples through the welcome tab... but on the rpi2 qt creator won't open with out the "-noload Welcome" option :-/
