    I used to work on other IDEs, at which this feature is pretty common. but haven't not found this on qt creator. have to press Ctrl+f every time when I want to highlight some variable. googled it still nothing found...

    is there a way to just double click and hightlight it? that would be more convenient.

      Hi
      Never seen such option.
      you could bind "ctrl+f" to be some other key that you find easier to press.

          Hi
          its owned by Digia
          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digia
          Not nokia anymore.

          This feature is semi special and its already possible using a key , so its not very likely:)

          However, Qt Creator is fully open source :),
          so you can add to the IDE yourself
          if you want.
          Be aware that its rather huge editor so compile times are long :)
