Won't load all the new project files.

runfastman

Qt Creator 4.6.2. on windows 7.

I am following the Hello Widget World example and after creating the project, the only file that is loaded is my mainwindow "HellowWorld.pro". I don't have the folders for "Headers" "Sources", or "Forms". If I right click on the project, the options to add things are grayed out.

I go to the directory and it shows the following, but the don't show up in QT Creator.
HelloWorld.pro
HelloWorld.pro.user
main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp
mainwindow.h
mainwindow.ui.

What is going on?

Hi
Maybe something it the pro file that prevents parsing it ?
Can you show it ?

Here is the pro file (minus the copyright comments)

Hi
That looks like a QML file ?
not a .pro file. (project file)

runfastman

@mrjj

Looks pretty fine to me.
Try run qmake from menu and see if it says something in the output pane.

Hi,

Might be a silly question but are you sure you have the project view activated ? See the Browsing Project Content chapter of Qt Creator's documentation.

runfastman

I can't make it "Could not determine which "make" command to run. Check the "make" step in the build configuration."

Don't know what is wrong with it. But I restarted Qt Creator and created a whole new project and this one worked. The old project still doesn't open correctly though.

Tried zipping and uploading the project but it wouldn't let me. If someone wants the project to see why send me a message.

Then try nuking the .pro.user file and redo the configuration of your project.
