Start by doing the steps described at https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/figmatoqt/figmatoqt-getting-started.html

Hi, This is a user forum. For feature request, you should open one on the bug report system.

📺 𝚕𝚕𝚊𝚖𝚊.𝚚𝚝𝚌𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚝𝚘𝚛 installation for Qt Creator 18 on Windows. This video showcases how you can use gpt-oss 20b with Qt Creator 18 and llama.qtcreator. This was done on Windows 11 running on a Bosgame M5 "Strix Halo" AMD Ryzen 395+ PC. First the llama.cpp extension in installed from Qt Creator's extension store, then llama.cpp via winget.

Bah! I did miss the obvious - just need to use the drop-down to change the item type!!!

You already can do this, just select Current executable in Project's Settings at the Build Steps: [image: e34e8220-ec92-4e5d-a92b-437c909b1536.png]

@steve-jobs said in what is the creator and design studio workflow: My biggest question is how on earth do I connect these two together. I make a project in creator and it doesn't make a .qmlproject file so design studio can't open it as a project. When I make a project with design studio it doesn't create any of the cpp, cmake or qml files that creator is wanting so I can't build what it made. Use Qt Design Studio to design the GUI Export your project to CMake by enabling the CMake generator (see https://doc.qt.io/qtdesignstudio/studio-exporting-for-c.html or https://doc.qt.io/qtdesignstudio/studio-cmake-generator.html ) Open the top-level CMakeLists.txt in Qt Creator

The .pro.user file has nothing to do in a source distribution and must not be shipped - it's specific to a local installation. Remove it and open the project again.

There is no Qt api to access a mongoDb - you have to do it by yourself. Since it's a no-sql database you won't be able to use QtSql module here.

note that this is now underway

@ScumCoder - thanks for posting this solution. Is there way I can select QtWebEngine from pre-build assistant.exe which I installed using pip install pyside6 in my conda environment?

@jsulm Thank you! [image: ce449242-a4e0-4f94-91f6-a2116a26f4f0.png]

@asenzz You can already use these tools with Creator, you just need to configure them: https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-how-to-git-merge.html If you are interested in an integrated merge tool, please comment and vote for QTCREATORBUG-16493 Regards

Hi, Did you check the shortcuts documentation ?

You are using "NMake Makefiles JOM" generator for CMake. Try with Ninja, maybe it doesn't hit the "command line is too long" issue. Otherwise, you can configure Qt Creator to use junction points for CMake source and build directories. See https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-build-settings-cmake.html#using-junction-points-on-windows You would have to reconfigure your project from scratch, but it should help bypass the long paths issue on Window.

Hi @Tyler-Shellberg, on my Ubuntu Linux 24 I installed the bash-language-server with snap and then setup the language client as follows: [image: 43ae0eee-6f32-44de-9337-2b40e6b5595a.png] and this works for me. If you have to set sh.exe as executable, then please try to add start as argument. Regards
