    The documentation states: To specify a resource file you must enable the resource editor by opening the Tools menu, and switching on the Resource Browser option.

    Really. I cannot find it. Where is it?

            @mrjj Thanks. I would never have gotten that from the documentation; however, let me add that I know it is in there the documentation is very good, I just have not stumbled across it.

                @mrjj What would we do without Google, or the other search engines.

                    Bahh. I remember a box with 7! books coming with Turbo Pascal for Windows. The software was on 11 (or so) 3.5" DD disks... good old times. I typed listings from magazines and learned from the errors I made. Sometimes it took days to finish. But you always got your work done.

                    Hard to imagine from nowadays - but only 25 years away.

                          @jsulm Better let's continue in a "good old times" thread?!

                          And back to topic:

                          @mrjj @ofmrew As you both stumbled upon the same place, have you considered to file a documentation bug at bugreports.qt.io ? The doc team picks up suggestions quite fast in my experience.

                          Thanks.

                            anyway
                            Im not sure - its not there :)
                            Its just from http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/resources.html, its not really clear you can add via File->New.
                            But i think i saw it somewhere else but cant find it.
                            But a small picture in top showing where to make it would not hurt.

                              @mrjj While we are on nostalgia, my first language was FORTRAN II, yes 2, on a 7095. We had programs on cards or paper tapes. For the IBM 370, the library for an assembler programmer took a large bookshelf. When I taught Advanced Assembler Programming (IBM 370) at the university one of the emphasis of the course was learning to understand the manuals. There was two parts to that topic, learning the meaning of the language used and using that to point you to the correct manual. Feedback was that it was the most valuable part of the course. Now I am trying to learn the meaning of the language being used in the Qt documentation.

                                @ofmrew It should be 7094, the scientific version of the 7090 series.

                                    @mrjj I loved the IBM 370 assembly language; but back then I could keep all the register assignments, values of pointers, etc, in my head, but time passes.
