@Axel-Spoerl said in Disable showing the xml of edited .ui files:
What else? After all, the ui file is currently open. What should be opened in the editor instead? Should it remain empty?
Actually yes, or just let it be at the state it was before (any cpp file that was opened before).
The XML file is what is actually processed during compilation. It may even be interesting for some to check.
I think the times one wants to go back to actual code that was worked on before outweighs the times of wanting to have a look at the underlying xml by far. The problem is that once you go back to text edit mode the projects explorer selects the opened ui/xml file and now i have to rethink on where my initial file was. @TomZ is right, if want to look at the xml i can still do this explicitly, but opening an ui file twice in the texteditor and in the designer per default is just an annoying experience.
