    Whenever creating new Qt Creator projects, I always have to go and uncheck "Run in terminal". Gets me every time.

    Is there some way to make this unchecked by default when creating new projects or build configs?

      Hi @Kepler-141c, is this for console projects?

      AFAIK, non-console projects (e.g. Qt Widgets Application, Qt Quick Application, etc.) don't have "Run in terminal" checked by default.

        @JKSH, Yep, for console projects.

          I don't know how to disable that by default, sorry.

          I can think of a few workarounds:

          • Create a "Qt Widgets Application" project and delete the widget files.
          • In the .pro file, remove the line CONFIG += console. I believe this also suppresses the terminal window.
          • Modify the Qt Creator source code and build your own custom version which disables this setting for console applications by default
