    Somehow I managed to get QtCreator's text mode into --COMMAND-- or --INSERT-- mode (on OSX)

    I don't care what it is or how it works. How do I get rid of it?

    All I care about is normal text-editing without these strange modes. One of them lets me select text-parts but not delete them. My mouse-cursor is now even missing.

    I'm developing on Windows, OSX and z/OS in a dozen environments and can't get my head around all strange editor-peculiarities.

      Try unchecking the option in Edit -> Advanced -> Use vim-style editing

      You can disable the shortcut sequence too.
