Qt Creator and other tools

Just make sure that the tex codec for tools is set to UTF-8. I tested on Windows a project: astyle clang-format as external tool (is shipped with Qt Creator) clang-format as part of the ClangFormat plugin See the result below: [image: qt-creator-16-formatting.webp] I think it works as expected. The text doesn't get distorted.

Since you wrote that the example is building successfully, what about copying it and the gradually replace its content with the one from your project ?

The update to Qt Creator 16.0.0 and Qt 6.9.0 solved the problem. Thank you !

Hi, Please use coding tags (the </> button in the editor) to make your code readable and please reduce it to a minimal example that shows the issue.

A similar problem went away when I removed all breakpoints in the DAP Breakpoint Preset.

@cristian-adam Thank you, I will.

I uninstalled all the version and reinstalled the latest version using installer, it seems to be working better. I am gonna keep an eye on it, if it happens again, I will open this thread again.

can you show Kits->TextEditor tab?

I created an issue: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-32747

@seban ok, I have the same situation. To fix I have to manually edit the snap json file? It would not be restored after an update?

@jsulm yes, the compiler is set in the Kit. The only way to use my xcode_12_5_1.app is to change default system xcode by executing xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode_12_5_1.app/Contents/Developer

@Soniya Please format your code properly. There is also no need to post commented out code if it has nothing to do with your issue.

Glad you found out and thanks for sharing ! Since you have it working now, please mark the thread as solved using the "Topic Tool" button or the three dotted menu beside the answer you deem correct so that other forum users may know a solution has been found :-)

Hi and welcome to devnet, I would nuke the .XYZ.user (name will depend on project manager you are using) file in your project folder and reconfigure the project.

You can get CMake to be verbose with the build process by going to Project Mode > Build Steps > CMake arguments and add --verbose. Then you can see the commands it tries to build. Building with Qt 6.7, 6.8 or 6.9 on macOS with Xcode is something that works just fine. I can think of only having to "activate" the Command Line Tools for Xcode. Please do try to: Open Xcode Go to Preferences Cmd + , Go to Location At the Command Line Tools: combobox select something there. I have Xcode 16.2 (16C5032a).

Hi, same thing with QtCreator 16. I will create a bug report. Thanks

So, with the beautifier we made it work now. In the end we had to remove LineEnding: CRLF From our .clang-format file, since this was breaking completely the formatting in Qt Creator. Running clang format from the command line worked fine though. The ClangFormat extension does not apply the formatting on the full file, but only on changed lines, which we did not want. Also it made the settings dialog of Qt Creator extremely slow somehow.
